Harrachov Glass Works

Amazing to watch the articians blow glass to form beautiful wine glasses. The fireball is about 500 degrees celsius and the men are working in Birkenstock sandals! They also drink beer to keep cool and enjoy their job!

View from above.

They also have a brewery there so of course we had to have a PIVO! (beer in Czech language)

    Yes, six glasses for port. All of my wine glasses are from this company. If you get on Crate & Barrel website and search for Czech Republic.....all of their wine glasses come up!

      Dad bought nine - 16 oz beers for a total of $6.40 US dollars. It is cheaper to drink beer here than water.
