I had seen it somewhere before that they were in Hertford, I thought it was on here but obviously not if Steve didn't know!
Didn't know they had ever had an open day before this weekend although the flyer we got through the door suggests they have. Taking my Mum down as she loves all things glass.
Not sure about calling themselves "London based" on the website though...............could take issue with that! Hope it is just something they forgot to change when they moved to Hertford.

The glass blowers are opposite Highway Cyles in Great Northern Works Hartham Lane.
I poked my nose in when I was visiting the bike shop and they are really nice people. Beautiful glass lampshades. Wishing them a successful weekend.

See you later my Mum is so looking forward to it!
Went down this morning and it is fascinating to watch a true craftsman at work. If you have not been do make the effort it is worth it and they have some lovely things on sale as well.
Well done to everyone involved.

Yes - very well done. Popped in on the way back from town and came out £75 poorer. There is some lovely stuff there and it's great to see it being made too.
Thoroughly recommended.

Had a brilliant afternoon there. My son was fascinated and is determined to buy himself something in 'Ruby Gold Extra'
