La Trinidad glass factory in Seville has carried out major research
in an area which could be called industrial archaeology, producing
many masterful pieces.
There are two workshops producing stained
glass in the towns of Bailén and Ubeda, in the Province of Jaen.
Contemporary glassware in Andalucia
In addition to the traditional glassware to be found in Andalucia there are a few contemporary craftspeople with studios across the region, especially in small towns and rural areas.
These contemporary artisans produce hand decorated fused and slumped glass. The work they produce can include platters, jewellery and sculptured pieces.
