Product Story
A collaborative project between two masters of their craft: Philippa Craddock, best known for creating the floral displays for Prince Harry and Meghan’s Windsor wedding, and acclaimed designer Jochen Holz who creates unique pieces from lamp-worked laboratory glass. Functional forms sit alongside playful decorative vessels of varying shapes and heights to create an undulating landscape of glass. When filled with water and flowers, the organic fluted vessels have a jewel like quality; suspending and refracting light and colour.

Process
When conceiving the installation Jochen and Philippa sent several months in dialogue, visiting each others' studios and understanding their working practices. By fusing their expertise they wanted to create the perfect collection of vessels that would support the thoughtful gesture of a plant and flower presented in unison. From a single stem to whole arrangements the impetus was to create elegant and playful ways to bring nature into the home.
Process
Jochen Holz is an award winning contemporary glass artist producing vibrant, organically shaped lampworked glassware and artworks. Jochen originally trained in lamp working in Germany before studying glass at Edinburgh College of Art and The RCA. After graduating in 2003, Jochen established his studio in East London. Jochen Holz’s approach to design is guided by the lampworking process and the flowing forms of hot glass. Each piece is a one off with a unique, spontaneous energy.
Philippa Craddock is a self-taught florist with a down to earth approach to floristry. She founded her eponymous floristry business in 2009, working globally with brands and individuals, designing fresh floral installations for campaigns, projects, weddings and private events, including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding. In 2018 Philippa launched her flower school and her first collection of products. For The New Craftsmen, Philippa has collaborated with glass artist Jochen Holz to create ‘Glass Meadow’, an installation of 21 unique vessels, including 6 repeatable pieces which can be bought separately.
