The original Gränna Glashytta was located to the west of Flygsfors and not far from Orrefors Glassworks.

It is not in operation. Having visited the site, there is nothing left but a run down building.

The other Grånna Glashytta is located towards the west. Micke Johansson, a master from Orrefors and
Pukeberg is now designing glass for this glass studio.

Hi Bill.

I was brought up at Gränna Glasbruk, and somehow you have mixed thing up, badly.

Gänna is a small town by lake Vättern. There I no connection between the two glassworks, except for the town of Gränna. The current glasswork has been active since the early 60.ies.


Sincerely.

Paul Padoan (youngest son of Germano Padoan)

Hello:

Your are correct.

I was thinking about the Gadderås Glassworks north of Flygsfors.
