National Arts & Disability Awards and Creative Australia Awards
Creative Australia commissioned the fabrication of ten unique glass trophies for the 2024 National Arts and Disability Awards and the Creative Australia Awards.
The trophies are intended to embody creativity and artistic excellence, reflecting the values of Creative Australia. The design approach was to use interlocking hemispheres of coloured glass that match the design and shapes of the Creative Australia logo. Each piece is ground and polished to stand freely and invisibly glued together. The hand-blown and sculpted trophies are finished with polishing for enhanced colour vibrancy and shine, then each piece is engraved with the recipient’s details.

Australian Cool Climate Wine Show Awards
After a brief hiatus due to Covid 19, the Australian Cool Climate Wine Show returned and commissioned Canberra Glassworks to make the highly sought after awards this year.
Working with artist Ben Edols, we created a stunning hand-blown Venetian-style platter in two different colourways. The centre of each platter features a white Zanfirico cane detail which is meticulously crafted in our Hotshop in Canberra.
