Ngwenya Glass is undoubtedly one of Swaziland’s most responsible businesses – socially and environmentally. The fact that they are not standing still and are constantly re-assessing and improving the way they go about business is a credit to the owners and managers of this great Swaziland attraction.

Well -researched article. Thanks for highlighting this. All of us here in Swaziland are proud to be associated with Ngwenya Glass.

I love it too. A good friend of mine is a glass blower. She used to work at Harbourfront, and then she worked at the Living Arts Centre. Now she has her own studio, she does great work. caliballes

Glass blowing is one of the few things I could watch for hours. In Toronto, I often go to Harbourfront Centre to watch the people work.

Hey Keith!

Interesting article. I’m fascinated with glass works. It’s a big thing here in Guatemala as well, run by local communities to help out the poor. And all the glass is recycled. I haven’t made it out to that area yet, since it’s in the highlands.
