★ ★ ★ ★ ★ All of the glass for this work is recycled from many sources, which we love, and doesn't show in the work a smidge. A wide range of styles, including marine life and simple classic vases, with wonderful subtly different colors from piece to piece. Glass flowers and complimenting greenery are unique. Mid to high-ish prices, but it's easy to see the skill that backs that up. There are small and simple things that make an inexpensive souvenir too. Definately recommended, especially when they're blowing glass in the next room.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a lovely studio with a variety of beautiful hand-made glass art, from brightly colored star fish to amazingly textured and colored dishes, to blown glass vases in so many gorgeous colors. I picked up two beautiful vases, one in a green, the other in blue and clear swirl. The artist is so interesting to talk to, giving lots of great information on how the pieces are made. We even got to talking about transmission wire insulators. Just so happens he has a little museum in back. Beautifully organized with accompanying text and photos/news articles from the time on the history and evolution of the Canadian insulator. I highly recommend a visit to this place!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a great place to visit and be inspired! Bought some unique gifts and learned about the art of glass fusion. Wish I had had time to create a piece of art myself. Next time for sure.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Return visit to the Glass Foundry. Picked up a cute little red glass fish. Simple design that I think is nicely done. If you are in the area, please consider dropping by and support this artist. Hard times with all the craft shows on hold with COVID-19 precautions.
