The final 180 from a 38-year Cotswold workshop
A single hand-cut stained-glass songbird, built from 34–41 separate pieces of genuine hand-rolled cathedral glass on a hand-bent solid-copper foot, mounted on a turned English walnut base. Every songbird passes through Henry Whitcombe's hand at the same Burford workbench he has used since 1996. The workshop closes at the end of June 2026 — Henry is leaving to be at home full-time with his wife. After the last 180 ship, there will be no more.
