Lofoten Glass is a glass jewelry studio based in Kabelvåg, Nordland, offering hands-on bead-making workshops for visitors and locals. Featured on The Adventure Collective, Lofoten Glass focuses on compact, creative experiences that let participants design and craft wearable glass jewelry in a single session. Workshops are available in three formats: a 3-hour workshop to make three unique pieces, a 2-hour workshop to make two pieces, and a 1-hour session to create 2–3 beads for a necklace, earrings, or a keychain.
Each class teaches techniques for forming and finishing glass beads and guides participants through designing their own necklaces, bracelets, or earrings. Materials provided include high-quality gold and silver components used to assemble finished jewelry.
Sessions take place in Kabelvåg, Nordland, with an emphasis on practical, hands-on instruction and finished wearable results. The format suits beginners and those seeking a creative souvenir or a custom accessory made during a short visit to the Lofoten islands.
Booking options accommodate different schedules with 1-, 2-, and 3-hour durations, and each workshop produces multiple finished pieces to take home. Lofoten Glass presents clear, session-based offerings focused on small-scale jewelry projects, tangible outcomes, and the opportunity to learn bead-making techniques using premium materials. The studio’s appearance on The Adventure Collective helps travelers discover these concise, craft-focused experiences in Kabelvåg.
