IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION!

Final Update Ever :(
​
Cains Cottage is closed. We have left our rental studio in Brendale and sold all our stock. We thankyou for your patronage over our 27 years and wish everyone all the very best with their future glass projects.
​
Please note that the usual mobile number to call is no longer a business number.
​
Kind regards,
Donna and Nic Cains

​
Due to circumstances beyond our control I am sad to announce the closure of Cains Cottage as of 14.12.24
​
After working with glass for over 30 years and teaching in my studio for nearly 27 years we have to close. Our rented accommodation is being sold and I have been given notice to vacate. As much as Nic and I have enjoyed our time we find ourselves unable to pack up and relocate for the 5th time since we started in the mid 80's.
​
I am currently selling all glass including some rare to find original Spectrum and Uroboros glass.... all at 50% off recommended retail prices marked. Also books, lamps, and finished display pieces. Studio open for this is only by appointment. You can currently contact me on 0413619995, please leave a message if I can't get to the phone. Or by email cainscottage1998@gmail.com
​
If you have a current gift voucher you may use it for the purchase of glass, books, lamps and finished display items until 14.12.24 when we close our doors for the last time. Unfortunately there are no vacancies for classes left for the remainder of my time there.
​
We've met some lovely people along the way and will keep some lifetime friends. Thankyou to all.
​
Regards,
Donna and Nic Cains
