What To Expect

Waterford

A visit to the House of Waterford allows you to experience the sheer divinity of fine crystal, as well as the masterful techniques that create such opulent visions of beauty. Nothing compares with the atmosphere of the blowing room, the heady mix of heat, noise, and bustling activity makes this experience even more breath-taking as you edge closer to the 1400c furnace. In front of your eyes, you will see red-hot molten crystal take shape, in a miracle of light, heat, and skill. Our craftsmen are meticulous, and you can watch as they transform glowing balls of molten crystal into elegant shapes with skills that have made two hundred years of perfection visible in every piece. Afterward enjoy a light lunch in a Waterford café or shop the collection in the onsite 12,000 square feet retail store.
