Artists & Artisans in Balsall Common, West Midlands, UK

“Having watched an episode of Dream Kitchens & Bathrooms on Channel 5, and marvelled at the glass worktop that was displayed; we managed to find Fused Glass Design who fabricated them. Having initially contacted these guys, we were regularly provided with assistance and support, along with any queries we might have had; always swift to reply and more than happy to provide detailed information. We visited the showroom and had a lengthy chat with James regarding our needs, and details of size and design were discussed; and unlike most businesses nowadays a 'quotation' was calculated at the time...with no hidden costs. Craig visited our home to take an exact measurement for the worktop, and further assurances and information was given. Dylan provided numerous designs and minor alterations to allow us options to tweak our original design; nothing was too much trouble. We were given updates as to the progress of the undertaking, and when delivery and installation would take place. Dylan and Craig both arrived and installed our worktop....nothing short of magnificent, if you think the pictures in the gallery are amazing; then you need to have one of these sooner rather than later....it is the focal point of our kitchen. I can honestly say the 'value for money' for this bespoke glass creation is unquestionable, especially when you consider this includes delivery and installation....it's a no brainer! James, Dylan and Craig are totally professional and enthusiastic about their products, and so they should be; they are tremendous quality and unique pieces of art. Cannot recommend these guys highly enough.”

“I was looking for an original and unusual mutual around my bedroom walls. Graham designed and painted a truly beautiful blossom tree for me with fairies and butterflies making it look unique, feminine and inviting. Grahem was patient, so talented and really cared about the end result. I would recommend him to anyone looking for something bespoke from an amazingly talented artist”

“Gios cafe provides an incredible service. What began as an enquiry into possible colour schemes, blossomed into a 360% radical makeover. Locating materials that enhanced my environment as well as focussing The design of my space through placement of artifacts found and created by hand revealed the skill of Giovanna of the 'Gios cafe' enterprise. It is quite unique to actually be involved with a designer who can take elements of a space and then go further to create artifacts, glass or mixed media, that encapsulate the essence of your concept. I cannot recommend Giovanna and the 'Gios Cafe' highly enough.”
