Brierley Hill Crystal
Brierley Hill Crystal have now taken over the products of Crystal With A Twist and Kinver Crystal. Brierley Hill Crystal is owned by Darryll Hemmings, a third generation master cutter.

His grandfather Mr Harold Breeze was the founder of Brierley Hill Glass nearly one hundred years ago. We think we are probably the only company left in the UK who specialise in 'roughing' and 'smoothing' techniques using traditional stone cutting methods to achieve the extraordinary depth and brilliance associated with our products.

We supply crystal, whether it be a large piece or a simple wine or brandy glass to our customers both in the UK and worldwide, many of them returning year after year because of our attention to detail and competitive prices. All the items are available either plain, sandblasted or engraved with company logos, shields and text. You simply tell us what you require and we will do the rest. We also offer a design matching service for any discontinued designs you may have.
