Craft a Vessel, Made By You

Dive into the captivating art of glassmaking with our Glass Vessel Workshop – a favourite for those seeking to craft something both beautiful and functional. Under the guidance of expert artisans, you'll shape molten glass into a unique creation of your choice: a tumbler, posy vase or bowl. Choose your colours, embrace your creativity and watch as your vision comes to life. Whether you're crafting for yourself or sharing the experience, this workshop guarantees a treasured memory and a stunning result.

This one-hour session is designed for up to two people sharing the time slot and crafting together, or for those attending solo, with a fully dedicated learning experience. With personalised guidance from your instructor, you'll be introduced to traditional techniques for shaping molten glass and applying colour.

As the session unfolds, you may choose to create smaller vessels in varying sizes, or dedicate the full hour to perhaps crafting one larger statement piece – whether working individually or sharing the experience together.

After the workshop, your creations will need 2-3 days to cool before they are ready for collection or delivery.
