About Bob Crooks

Bob Crooks is one of Britain’s most highly recognised leading glassmakers. Renown for the high quality, skilfully executed dynamic forms and surfaces, he has been producing for over 30 years. Continuously thinking of original and challenging ideas. His work has been exhibited at International level and in noted exhibitions in Italy, China, Scandinavia, Australia and the USA, alongside many exhibitions at home in the UK.

Each piece is designed, handmade and finished by Bob. No moulds are used to create the forms or surfaces achieved.

The pieces are inspired by geometry, architecture, the natural and man-made worlds we live in as well as the qualities and capabilities of the glass itself. Throughout the variety of the work, Bob exploits the many properties of the material through refraction or reflection; sharpness or softness, transparency or opacity, working with its fluidity and ‘freezing’ it as the desired form is realised.

Within the range of production work made, Bob has consciously developed work that is, because of the nature of different applications, a one-off it is not possible to make two pieces identical.

Bob set up his own glass-blowing studio in 1990, first in Gloucestershire, and then from 1994 to 2002 in Clapham, when he relocated the workshop to Devon, where he now lives and works.
