Magnor Glassworks
Magnor Glassworks is one of Norway's best-known glassworks
The glassworks has existed for over 120 years, and still produces all its products by hand. Here you can find works by a number of designers and artisans, experience concerts, visit the factory outlet and blow your own glass.
Magnor Glassworks was founded as early as 1896 in the deep border forests on the Norwegian side, Magnor, just 3 km from the Swedish border (and 12 miles from Oslo). The large forests were to provide fuel for the heat-sucking smelting furnaces. Several generations of skilled designers and glass workers have shaped Magnor Glassverk's history. More than 120 years of tradition and experience in handmade glass have come in handy and provided valuable knowledge and experience.
Development does not stand still even as the years pass, but much remains the same when molten sand is magically transformed into sparkling glass.
