This traditional glassworks recycles bottles into decorative objects. On site, a team of craftsmen are busy bringing glass back to life - you can watch glassblowers from 10am to 11am and from 1pm to 2pm - while a museum highlights the gallery's involvement in environmental protection. A special feature is Hands of Fame, an evolving exhibition of handprints made by celebrities who have visited Mauritius. The boutique offers vases, candleholders, lamps, mirrors, etc.

On arrival at 4pm we were advised , all we could do was walk around the shop. You can only see the glass blowing between 10-11 & 1-2. They no longer provide the service whereby you can have your hand or foot immortalised in glass, apparently this service has not been available since Covid.
Perhaps if you make it to to see the glass blowing it will be a more interesting trip,otherwise it is merely a brief walk around looking at the items for sale that they produce from recycled glass

Je suis toujours impressionnée par le talent des artisans verriers. Impressionnée par leur patience, leur précision et leur endurance pour exercer ce métier qui n'est pas donnée à tout le monde. Le visite de la galerie est assez courte je dois dire mais j'ai bien aimé voir les différentes créations exposées. On voit les artisans en train de travailler aussi et c'est très impressionnant.

A sad place. Mostly cut up glass bottles from Phoenix beer and Fanta cut up and turned into mugs. No custom glass blowing pieces for sale.
