oglebay institute glass museum

The shop is beautiful and it's fun to go down and watch the glass being blown. Always something new to look at and prices range from very low to high for all types of shoppers.

The glass works are amazing and not too pricey. admission to museum of $7 per person a little steep for what's actually there

Beautiful gifts and objects that make your visit to Oglebay a treasure! Our second visit but not our last.

Its small but at the end, there is a man there and he showed us how he makes glass flowers. It was very cool to watch. He explained things and encouraged us to ask questions.

The museum hosts glass from the area and gives a brief overview, but the best part was the glass blower. We spent 30 mins just watching and talking with him. Informative and fun!

From inexpensive to very expensive items all were gorgeous. Very nice shopping experience. Didn't expect to see that quality of glassware at the mountain top store. Beautiful displays in a very nice store.

The wonders of the Art of glass making abound here. Very large display of item made in the USA, many made on site and all for sale. Be sure to visit the lower level and watch the glass items being made and be amazed.

This Glass Museum rivals some of the best we've seen. The glass work is beautiful, the history well presented, and the displays easy to read and understand. Definitely worth the trip!

It's in the basement of the glass house gift shop. The entrance is in the back of the store so you have to walk past a lot of glass on open tables to get to the entrance. No tour guide so just looked at cases and cases of glassware without knowing much about them. Workshop was better with glass paper weight making demonstration.

Saw glass designs that I haven't seen anywhere else. Learned how important glass was to the area and the many companies that flourished.Hard to get excited about glass but these designs are unlike any other. They also have actual glass blowing exhibits but not the day we were there.

It is a great museum to walk through, learning about the history of wheeling, and glass. At the end of the tour, you can watch someone blow glass and if you have never seen it, it's totally worth it!

You an watch glass blowing and it is quite interesting. They have many glass items for purchase also.

It's a very nice place to shop. It's alot of items made of glass, similar to some of their Festival of Light Displays. I especially liked the illuminating glass hyacinths.

An amazing collection of everything glass. History of glass making in West Virginia. On site glass making demonstrated. Gift shop filled with everything glass you can imagine.

We started not to go in the Glass Shop. However, once we were inside we were very impressed. The glass products are absolutely stunning!
