Lexington Glassworks — Attraction in Asheville

Beautiful glass pieces for sale! Mostly decorative, no daily use items like pitchers, beer mugs, and stemware. (which we LOVE) Sales area has a snobish vibe to it. May be what I just mentioned, that everything is more beauty (Stunning pieces) than function. I can't justify spending a lot on something to just look at. (nor do we have a home with enough space to properly display such art) Take that for what it is, just one persons opinion. (Also, one might expect a certain tension in the air being that EVERYTHING on open display is so fragile and one of a kind!) Glass blowers were fantastic! 5 stars for them. Took the time to answer questions and explained different techniques they use to create the stunning pieces on display. They also showed us some of the materials that they utilize to blend color into their work. Very pleasant and informative. I don't know if they normally would have the time for the Q&A but we happen to be there just as they were finishing their day and they seemed very into sharing information about their art. I wish we could afford to support...

If you're in Asheville and looking for a great place to enjoy craftsmanship and support local businesses who are artists...this is the place.

The showroom is so impressive. Anything you think you want to own made of glass that sparks your inner artistic style...they sell it here. They make new items all day long, so you get to experience the artistic process.

Enjoy the people. The people here are amazing. You meet people from all walks of life. If you want to commission a custom job, they will accommodate the conversation. Please don't be shocked by the prices. This isn't Amazon...this is a place that does quality work, and they're fighting to stay afloat after the hurricane (they were closed for a month).

Everyone working there is amazing. I met one amazing woman (sorry...I can't remember her name) from Argentina who made my wife and I feel super welcome. I can't wait to come back to see what else...

We purchased two hand blown pendants (9" round taper) to install above our kitchen island. They are absolutely beautiful - the quality and uniqueness is amazing (see attached photos for the pendants as installed and a close-up). Also, the hardware included (ceiling mount, wire sheath, and pendant mount) were easy to install and match the pendants really well.

The overall process took a while (~12 weeks) - so you'll need to plan accordingly, but it was definitely worth the wait. The team at Lexington Glassworks was great to work with in the design and build of the pendants. We self-installed, which was pretty simple to complete if you want to go that route.

We highly recommend Lexington Glassworks for this type of work - we were very pleased with the whole process and end products, thanks team...
