Good for

Endless possibilities from the furnace.

Let them choose! Select an amount that covers their whole order, or goes toward the balance of their selection. Redeemable all at once, or over several visits with us.

A class in the hot shop

An hour at the bench with an artist beside them, making an ornament, a paperweight, a cup or a bowl. A private lesson or a make-your-own session can be given outright from the list above; classes run all year, and you can inquire about our seasonal offerings.

Glass from the shop

Vases, bowls, ornaments and drinkware blown here in West Town, each one a little different from the last.

A commission or an award

Help bring their vision to life: a custom color scheme, that pendant light they've been imagining, an engraved award or the perfect housewarming gift. The balance goes toward their quote.

Custom work

The Vessel of Us ceremony kit

For the couple: they combine their colors during their ceremony and our artists use the combined colors to create a hand-blown glass piece for them. The full kit is $850, or the Mini is $395. Purchase a card for them to apply toward the balance, or for those amounts to gift them the whole kit!

Questions

Before you give it.

Does the gift card expire?

No. There is no expiration date and no fees, and the balance stays on the card until it is used.

Can it be used at the studio and online?

Both. Online, there is a gift card box at checkout. At 401 N. Armour St., show the email or read out the code at the counter and we apply it on the spot.

Can I send it on a particular day and time?

Yes. Choose "On a date", pick the day and the time (in your own time zone) and the certificate is emailed then; you get your order confirmation right away. You can also send it to your own email and forward it or print it when the day comes.

What if the email does not arrive?

Check the spam folder first; the certificate comes from info@igniteglass.com. If it is still missing, write to us with your order number and we resend it.

Can it pay for a class?

Yes. Enter the code at checkout when booking online, or mention it when booking by email or at the studio. If the class costs more than the card, the difference is paid as usual.

Can I add money to a card later, or check the balance?

Yes. Choose "Adding to a card you already have?" above, enter the number on the card and the amount to add. We can check a balance at the counter or by email.
