Frommer's Staff

One of the country's top crystal companies, this establishment is known for its delicate glassware, mouth-blown and hand-cut by skilled craftspeople. Visitors are invited to watch as the master blowers fashion the molten crystal into intricate shapes and designs, which are then finished by master cutters. Handily enough, the completed products are sold in the center's shop. Bring your credit card, and don't make any sudden moves in this fragile place.
