For centuries glassblowers have endured tremendous heat to coax sublime forms from the fire using their breath and a few basic tools.
Little has changed today. From its furnace-blackened steelwork to the ancient shaping tools, the Saltmarsh Studio looks like something out of another age.
Hot glassblowing is a creative and industrial dance that holds the observer spellbound. Its skills are poetic, an ancient ballet of swift movement and detailed observance, as sure and unflagging as ocean crashing on nearby Thunder Point.
Experience this first hand as you watch hot glass artist Glenistair Hancock, conjure up something breathtaking before your eyes.
