Pairpoint

BEAUTIFUL! The loveliest glass work ever seen! Some of it very pricey (deducted 1 Unilocal STAR for that) but fabulous and fantastic place to visit. In the area to see the relatives and my aunt took us to visit Pairpoint, which has been in business since 1837! Talk about being around for a while!
Pairpoint is America’s oldest glass work company and an informative and interesting shopping experience. Watch the glass-​makers create their pieces. The extraordinary craftsmanship is fascinating to watch. The Sagamore location on Cape Cod offers a chance to witness the artistry of glassblowing Monday through Friday. The gift shop is open every day of the week!
The finest homes in America have displayed pieces of Pairpoint glass. According to the Pairpoint website, «glass is an art form and as such is in a continuous state of transformation. Pairpoint quickly established itself at the forefront by consistently inventing new techniques and stylistic trends that are copied to this day. In addition to the famous „puffies“, Lava, Peachglow and Satin glass were first created by Pairpoint glassblowers.»
Pairpoint provides custom glass and crystal commemorative pieces and trophies to some of America’s most prestigious sporting clubs and organizations. In 1974, Pairpoint began issuing limited edition pressed cup plates that have become highly collectible. There are now about 100 different patterns to collect. The beautiful glass ware is something to behold. I am not into buying a lot of stuff and putting it up on shelves to collect dust but that Cranberry glass was so gorgeous! You have to visit and take in the historical and artistic value of Pairpoint. Not to be missed activity on Cape Cod!
