Stained Glass Studio Sale

Post date 23 October 2023

This is an opportunity for an new or developing glass artist or artists, to take on a complete studio, including studio rental. The sale includes all you need to develop to develop a commercial, craft or artistic practice rapidly, and at a very reduced cost.

The studio is at St. Margaret’s House, 151 London Road, Edinburgh. It has been operating as a successful architectural glass business (as Alan Robinson Glass) for a number of years. The studio is fitted out with customised bench, cupboards, shelving, light box, plan chest, glass store and glass kiln.

There is an extensive range of materials and equipment including, sheet glass, lead cames, solder, fusing glass supplies, slumping moulds, glass painting equipment and supplies, glass casting supplies, glass grinder, soldering irons, hand tools, etc.

My preference is for a person or persons to take on the entire studio contents and if desired, may also take on the rental of the studio as tenants, with Scot-ART. It may be that someone wishes to only acquire parts of the materials and equipment along with the studio rental, and I can discuss proposals for this. The agreement of the studio owners, Scot-ART, will be necessary for any rental arrangement to be granted.

If this approach does not work out, I will then proceed to sell off the contents and furnishings in separate lots and give up the studio.

The studio will be closing at the end of October.

If you are interested in receiving further information about this studio sale, including costs and/or would like to visit the studio, or discuss the sale with me, please get in touch via the contact details below.
