It was difficult breaking into the world of contemporary glass where opinion prevails that glass engraving is an outdated irrelevance.

The Crafts Council awarded her a travel bursary to travel to Japan. Awards include one of the 2006 Coburg Glass Prizes and,in 2009, the MBE. www.katharinecoleman.co.uk
