Greeting Card (Square): Glass Melting in a Furnace: CARD-SQ-11
On this card you can see is one of the two gas fired glass furnaces at Cumbria Crystal melting the raw materials to make crystal. Each furnace can melts around 500kg of crystal per week at temperatures up to 1450 degrees centigrade.
Using filters to darken the photograph, it is possible to see ‘batch’, the name for the raw materials of glass, just after it has been added to the furnace to start melting, a process which takes two days from start to finish.
This card is left blank for your personal message and comes with an envelope.

The craftmanship of this whisky tumbler is top notch. An absolutely beautiful piece of glass.
It's a birthday gift for after the holidays
I love the Helvellyn design, and this stylish small 4oz glass is perfect for whisky tasting as it is a good size for a single measure. A lovely solid elegant little glass that is perfect in the hand.
Or you could just use it for juice as per the description!
First thoughts is the cloth is expensive for a cloth, if it we're bigger I'd consider it better value for money. If it were better priced, I'd of bought several. However, set aside my personal value feelings. The cloth is lovely, after washing my Crystal leaving to dry then polishing them with it, it brings the glass ware up a treat, a sparkle and twinkle. I am sure there are other cloths out there that would potentially do the same thing but I believe the team at CC to have done their research and this one for their glassware is the one. Allowing me to keep my much loved handmade crystal in top condition.
Gorgeous gift , well made, good quality feels and looks expensive- well received
This was an outlet Gin glass, but you wouldn’t know it ! Beautiful, heavy and gorgeous glass - very happy
This is gorgeous, bigger than expected and just as beautiful as all.the other pieces in this range that we have
absolutely loving the 8oz whisky glasses I recently bought. They exude quality and are so tactile that it is a pleasure to use them. Only problem is it has increased my whisky intake !!!
What beautiful glasses! Stunning! I’m So pleased with them. They are just perfect quality.
and I thoroughly enjoy my evening drink out of the Grasmere whisky tumbler. So much so that I have bought two more as a surprise Christmas present for my family to enjoy the experience too.
Purchased the Grassmere tumbler, really is perfect in your hand.
It’s the best tumbler I have ever held in my hand, being 53, I have held a few.
All my friends compliment the glass. I totally recommend
