Start with the colour
Pink pressed glass has a place at the origin of the collection, but the collection is not limited to one colour. Look at how tint and shape influence each other. Even without prior knowledge, you can pay attention to clarity, relief and the thickness of the glass.
A changing part
Part of the exhibition changes periodically. It is therefore worth checking the current subject in advance, especially for a repeat visit. For a striking object, ask about its origin and the use it was intended for.
An afternoon by appointment or in season
The regular visiting afternoons are Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, but seasonal limits and temporary closures also play a role. The location is not stated as reachable by public transport. Plan your transport and check your chosen afternoon in advance.
Before you go
Check the season; a temporary closure is stated from 11 to 18 October.
