"Stuart was awesome, explained the process beforehand and gently guides you through the process, but also lets you have a go independently too. Such a fantastic experience. Cannot recommend it enough."

Dorset Travelbunny.

"Myself, husband and sister in law booked a glassblowing experience with Stuart. Excuse the pun but we were “blown” away. Stuart is very knowledgeable and clearly very talented from seeing the objects in his shops. Total passion for the craft. Highly recommend him."

Tyler H.

"I went and had the “glass bowing experience” on a whim and it turned out to be a fantastic experience. Stuart is a master craftsman and is very passionate about his work, yet he is very patient, friendly and guides you through each part of the process. I would recommend the glass blowing experience to anyone for a truly unique and enjoyable day out"

Jan.

"We visited for the glass blowing experience as part of a civilised hen do! What a great time we had - Stuart is just the best - funny, understanding, very very patient and absolutely top of his art. We will be talking about this for years! Who would have thought we could make proper glassware! Thank you so much."

S. Griffin

"Stuart makes glass blowing accessible, fascinating, exciting and safe. We were a group of 6 and had an amazing afternoon. We can’t wait to receive our 6 creations in the post after cooling in the annealing oven!Stuart’s work on display in the shop is beautiful and you will definitely find something you like. What a wonderful experience ! Thank you Stuart"

Frequently Asked Questions

Check below common FAQ's.

Do we need to have any prior experience?

Not at all! Our classes are designed for complete beginners. We’ll guide you through every step of the process and teach you the essential techniques, so you can enjoy creating your own beautiful glass designs—even if it’s your first time.

Are these experiences dangerous?

Glassblowing does involve working with molten glass heated to around 1200ºC, so there is an element of risk. However, your safety is our top priority. We’ve implemented thorough safety procedures and provide full guidance throughout the experience. With over 700 glassblowing sessions completed and zero injuries, you can feel confident that you’re in safe hands.

What should we wear to a glassblowing experience?

All workshop attendees must wear sturdy, flat footwear for safety. We recommend a short-sleeved t-shirt or similar (avoid nylon materials), along with jeans, trousers, or shorts—whatever you’re most comfortable in. Due to the heat of the working environment, breathable, natural fabrics are best.

Long hair must be tied back, and you’re welcome to bring your own sunglasses if you'd like. If you wear contact lenses, please let Stuart know before the session begins.
