Grinter Glass Ltd

What an incredible studio! My partner and I had the great privilege to attend a 3-hour glass-blowing workshop run by Kirsten. She was an absolutely fabulous tutor with endless patience, excellent humour and a real passion for the craft. Definitely gives you an appreciation for the complex nature of this art form! She helped us make some awesome pieces we will treasure for years to come. We were absolutely blown away (ha) by the experience and will definitely be back again! Thank you so much! ((Also thank you for the extra purple cup!! My goodness that is stunning and I am completely in love with it!))

Brendan was an excellent teacher, loved my first ever experience with blown glass, and came away with some amazing glassware. Would recommend the course to anyone who likes making stuff A+++

One of Northland's best kept secrets. Always have to stop in for another glass to add to our collection when we go to Whangarei!

I contacted Keith to enquire about getting a bowl made for a friend who has a collection of his glasses as well as a vase/carafe. He was so helpful and made the process super easy. He provided a price with shipping and I gave her the voucher as a gift. She contacted him, chose her colour and he made the rest happen. The bowl arrived safely - it was packaged really well. The colours are fantastic, the shape of the bowl is versatile - not too shallow and not too wide. She can use it for salads, punch, fruit bowl etc which imeans she'll get good use out of it. She is SO happy with it, and even better - it was made to order ('just for her' as Keith said) which makes it even more personal and a bit more spesh. Thanks for making the experience so easy and enjoyable for both of us!
