Isle of Wight Glass
Isle of Wight Glass was founded in 1972 by Michael Harris and his wife Elizabeth after they left behind their studio Mdina Glass in Malta. Their two sons, Timothy and Jonathan, trained with their father and became skilled master glassblowers themselves. The company thrived and over the years employed and trained many other glass workers.
