We are open once again after the Governments National Lockdown Restrictions were lifted on the 12th April 2021. We are back into full production, including commissions, glass classes and demonstrations. Please contact us if you would like to arrange a booking or even to come and watch a glassblowing demonstration, in order that we can provide adequate social distancing measures; call Ingrid on: 07803048747
Our opening times vary from week to week anyway, due to the nature of our commissioned work. We can often find ourselves working off-site, on installations of the larger-scale glass sculptures and commissions that we produce.
We do generally operate between the hours of 11am-9pm (after 5pm always by appointment, as we will arrange to leave the main gates at Thoresby Park open for you and with the car park lights on awaiting your arrival). We do emphasize though, that if you do wish to specifically visit us at anytime, to discuss a special commision or to watch a glassblowing demonstration that you contact us prior to your arrival, in order that you are not disappointed if we are working off-site or are tied up on other commissioned work/classes, especially during the Coronavirus Pandemic.
We warmly welcome all visitors to our studio and encourage people to stay and watch whenever we are glassblowing. Glass makers are real showmen (or women!) and love to have an audience to perform to. We have some of the most diverse glass pieces that we create here on display in our studio. Glass is constantly being created in front of ones eyes, whilst the furnaces roar in the background. It is an exciting medium to watch! (and even more exciting if you are lucky enough to have a go! Glass Courses)
If you would like to watch glass being made, please text, WhatsApp or email us in advance for an up-to-date itinerary of our opening times and glassblowing schedule or to make an appointment to have a piece commissioned or to browse our glass gallery, where we have a good selection of one-off pieces for sale.
Many Thanks,
Ingrid - Glass Artist & Business Owner
