Ignis Glass is fire

@ignisglass

Chloé here + Ignis Glass is my favorite thing I’ve never actually done in Chattanooga. A series of mishaps has kept me from actually going to the business’s 401 Broad St. location, but this post reminded me I need to do it asap. (If you want to come with, are willing to wear a mask and promise not to get too close to me — 6 feet, please — let’s do it! Email me.)

At Ignis, you get to create your own glass object. It’s a hands-on glass-blowing experience for $43.

In this post, Ignis teaches about the word “charge,” which is the process of shoveling rock chemicals into a furnace to melt glass. It takes hours to fill a furnace with enough glass for glass blowing.

Ignis is open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. 🔥
