The founders of Tropical Glass, embarked on their venture after being inspired by a thriving 50+ year-old glass terrarium. Starting as a humble hobby, they initially made terrariums for their mothers before expanding their gifts to friends and family. The duo officially launched their business in 2020 during the lockdown, when the pandemic allowed them to refocus their professional goals. Katie and Lucas, turned their terrarium-making hobby into a blossoming business from their home in Tottenham. By Christmas 2020, they were overwhelmed with orders, with their entire flat filled with stock. Today, Tropical Glass offer over 20 ready-made terrarium designs and 50 other products, including DIY kits, plants, and accessories. Customers can even learn the craft through workshops. Their passion and hard work have earned them a 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating and a stream of 5-star reviews on their website, proving their business continues to thrive and expand.
