Immerse yourself in the fascinating art of glassmaking with our Paperweight Making experience in the heart of Bath’s artisan quarter. Under the careful guidance of master glassblowers, you will select your colors, design your piece, and learn professional techniques to shape molten glass into a unique paperweight. The process involves working on the hot floor, applying specialist tools, and understanding how to sculpt glass safely and creatively. Each creation must cool slowly in our annealing kiln to ensure it sets perfectly without cracks. Participants may choose to collect their finished piece the next working day or have it posted directly to their home or workplace.
This hands-on workshop is designed for creativity and learning, combining the excitement of working with molten glass with practical guidance from experienced instructors. Comfortable, safe clothing is recommended, and sturdy footwear is essential. Long hair should be tied back, and participants are encouraged to bring a refillable water bottle. Arrive early to allow time for parking and preparation so you can fully enjoy the session. This immersive experience offers both a lasting keepsake and the opportunity to explore the timeless craft of glassblowing in a welcoming studio environment.
