A gallery full of absolutely beautiful pieces of glass artwork. We were lucky enough to go on a day that the actual glass blower was there doing his thing. Half of the building is the gallery the other half is the art studio with big windows so you can watch. Jason let us come in the art studio and watch him while he created a beautiful, one of a kind, glass paperweight. Very interesting to watch someone so talented with such beautiful results. Definitely worth a visit if youre in grants pass.

A group of relatives from out of town wanted to visit The Glass Forge after reading about it on the internet. Jason Laret demonstrated making a glass vase, and I was fortunate to be able to buy it. Its so beautiful, pictures do not do it justice. While there are so many amazing items available to purchase at their store, there is something extra special when you can actually watch a work of art appear before your eyes. I highly recommend The Glass Forge experience to anyone who lives in or visits Grants Pass, Oregon.

This place is awesome!! There were so many cool colors to pick from to blow up into a pumpkin. They were easy and thorough with the instructions. They also shipped the pumpkins to us because we dont live in Oregon. I love this place!

If you are looking for some beautiful works of functional art for your home or something new and exciting for your collection this is your place. They have it all. Jewelry, lamps, knick knacks, ornaments, statues, vases, glasses and more. They also take special orders and have a discount table for items that came out with a little extra character. Our family has made it a tradition to blow our own ornaments each year around Christmas. Its so much fun and you end up with a beautiful memento to mark the cherished memory. Even the little ones can do it and it wont break the bank! Call ahead first if you have a large group so they can block out some time for you.

They did beautiful work on the memorial glass I ordered. I found something that I liked but wanted it a little different. I explained to them what I wanted it to look like with colors and everything came out perfect. Very reasonably priced and caring professional people work here, Thank you so much to the workers at Glass Forge Gallery.

Beautiful glassware and sculptures greet your eyes once you step inside the store. Reasonable priced too. Pieces start at $3 for tiny glass critters and go up from there depending on size and difficulty of design.They had some really cute pumpkins for about $20.You can make your own too. It is a most unusual treat for kids and friends to make their own cup or bowl. Call them for more information.

I took my children here today and was beyond impressed with the friendliness, talent, and general feel of the place. They were SO informative, funny, and fun! My kids have been watching glass blowing on you tube and were SO happy to not only see it in real life, but the guys let them help with molds and paddling. It was super cool. I would recommend everyone spend an hour or two here watching these talented men and supporting this beautiful art form.

This is a really neat glass forge. It is open to the public in Grants Pass, OR so you can see how they make all kinds of glass artifacts. Its beautiful. A bit warm, but fun to watch. Thousands of degree kilns and blown glass are right in front of you. You can buy all kinds of gifts and useful glass objects. Check-it out as there are few l like it and its open and free to visit. Enjoy.

I absolutely love this place and the beautiful pieces they make. Its fascinating to watch them work in the shop and then browse the completed work. We have custom made champagne flutes as a wedding gift from my mother and many smaller pieces weve purchased over the last 10+ years! A must see in Grants Pass

Awesome. Drove in from Medford to look at all the amazing glass that was blown into art. Staff were very polite and let us enjoy our inner nerd. They showed my wife how to make her own piece while I videotaped. They do tours for children and we cant wait to take our grandchildren.

My husband accidentally broke my great grandmothers glass lamp that I loved and the glass forge came to the rescue. They made the most beautiful globe to replace what was broken. It fit perfectly into the bronze stand. Worth every penny😊

Review №53

I went here to try my hand at glass blowing which has always interested me-and Ive always wanted to try it. The glass forge offers an opportunity to make an ornament or glass float, pumpkin, bowl, or paperweight. It was fun, simple, only took a few minutes (I was making an ornament) and Id definitely do it again, maybe making something more complicated.

A beautiful gallery of glass and the opportunity to witness and participate in the making of originals, a four year old and a twelve year old were both treated to a session of making their own glass designs and were both fascinated by the process at their respective levels. A great experience.

Review №58

Easily the best place to bring out of town guests and family. The staff is unbelievably friendly and knowledgeable. Guests are always welcome. Its an open shop, so you can just stop in and watch the magic happen. If youre looking for something to do, this is still your place. Make your own glass items are available ranging from $30 to $100. Reservations are preferred but not required. Larger groups up to 30 or 40 people can be accommodated with some notice. The fully stocked Gallery is overflowing with handmade craft items at very reasonable prices. Custom made items can be commissioned at no increase of price overproduction items.

Review №61

Very beautifully made items. Pricey but worth it. Watched the glass blowers make Christmas bulbs. Fascinating.Update: We returned to Grants Pass and visited the factory again and purchased a paperweight. We then got a lighted base for it and put it on display in our home. It shows the colors an pattern so beautifully that we get wonderful compliments from everyone who comes to the house.Currently we are in contact with the factory to create a personal peace for us and to have it either videotaped or to watch it via webcam as they do as they created based on my request of colors and style. It is such a wonderful place that make sure design dreams come true.I highly recommend you take the time to visit ask questions and watch their great creative process. Allow yourself enough time to really enjoy the showroom. You can look at it and walk around two or three times and still find something new that you missed the first time. Its all so beautiful.

We very much enjoyed the process of making hand-blown glass ornaments and drinking glasses! The staff are all friendly, funny, and easygoing. Thankfully they are also very serious about safety. They assist in every part of the process, and offer you a range of interaction with the process. They also sell beautiful works of blown glass art :-)

Staff was very friendly! There were two men working the forge when my daughters & I visited this afternoon. They let us watch them work, answered questions, and even let us see what 2000+ degrees felt like when the forge door was open. Keegan told my girls (10 & 4) that it was able to stay so hot because there is a dragon named Clarence that blows his fire into it. It was GREAT! My girls LOVED that idea and wanted to see the Dragon😂.The workmanship of the glass these artists create is beautiful & I wish I could buy every piece. Today, we purchased a gift & Im excited to see the reaction of the recipient.
