"I hope visitors to The Hepworth Wakefield feel they are taking home a little piece of the Summer garden when they purchase the glasses."

The glass designs are developed from a series of Emma’s original paintings of The Hepworth Wakefield Garden, created by internationally acclaimed landscape architect Tom Stuart-Smith, maintained by Cultural Gardener Katy Merrington.

Katy, Cultural Gardener at The Hepworth Wakefield said: “This glassware beautifully captures some of the most iconic summer-flowering plants in The Hepworth Wakefield Garden, in particular the coneflowers which are so magical and popular with our pollinators too.”
