Colourful blue fused glass cufflinks by Martin Cheek
Martin Cheek is a versatile mosaic artist in Broadstairs, Kent. Martin founded a technique to incorporate glass fusions into his mosaics and in so doing, he essentially transformed the art and added unique textural interest to his work. He handmakes murrini which are what these cufflinks are made from.
