The Shape of Scent: London Craft Week 2026

The Shape of Scent: London Craft Week 2026

This May, Jorum and Craft Scotland present The Shape of Scent: a multi-sensory exploration of fragrance and glass. This special event brings together a free public exhibition alongside a ticketed programme of talks, demonstration and a cocktail reception as part of part of London Craft Week 2026.

Marking seven years since Jorum’s collaboration with glass artist Juli Bolaños-Durman on Wild Flowers, the exhibition showcases a series of works born from the collection. Originally inspired by Jorum’s inaugural fragrance range, Progressive Botany Vol. I, these pieces translate scent into tactile, visual form. Visitors will also encounter a wider selection drawn from Juli’s broader body of work.

The objects on display embody the rich, raw and abundant character of the natural world. Working with discarded glass, Juli deconstructs and reconfigures each element through an intuitive, playful process, embellishing forms with intricate, hand-cut detail.
