Fine Bone China from Wales - Glyn-Coch Designs

Description

The History of Glyn-Coch Designs

Glyn-Coch Designs was set up in 1980 by Rowland Evans, a dairy farmer, who ran the small business from his farm in West Wales. Twenty five years after starting Glyn-Coch Designs, and using the same hard-working approach, the business is still going strong and now boasts two shops. The first of these was opened in 1993 at Stepaside Craft Village and then a further shop named Simply the Best, run by his wife Lou, was opened in Upper Frog Street, Tenby, Pembrokeshire, in 1999.

Due to pressure of work they have now given up their two shops and are now working solely from home. 2004 has been one of their busiest years ever.

Rowland and Lou put their own exclusive designs onto only the finest bone china, and each piece is finished by hand to ensure that every item is perfect. Much of the exquisite collection is still contributed to by Jean Evans, who is to this day the most renowned ceramic artist in Wales. The hand-gilding and firing are done in Rowland and Lou's home in Tenby, where they have managed to set up their own firing studio, sometimes working late into the night to ensure their customers are ecstatically happy with their orders!
