Glass factory Nižbor

The Czech country is very famous for its typical production of fine Czech crystal goods. If you are interested in it and if you want to buy some products cheaper than in Prague´s shops, do not miss this opportunity. The Glassworks in Nižbor manufactures an extensive range of cut 24 % leaded crystal in a wide variety of decorations from the simple to extremely complex and laborious decorations, with gilt, hand painting and sandblasting. In the factory you will see all stages of how the glass is made.There are two important parts of manufacture, at first it is a furnace where each piece of glass gets the final shape, and then you will see an engraves´ studio where the decoration is made. Maybe you will be surprised that workers are still using the ancient technology, just like in the past centuries.

At the end of the visit you will be taken to the factory shop where you can buy local products.
