About Us
Wimberley Glassworks is Texas’ premier hand blown glass lighting and art glass studio, creating exclusive glass collections, limited edition vases, sculptures, platters and lighting since 1992. Wimberley Glassworks hosts daily glass blowing demonstrations for travelers and art glass enthusiasts from around the world. The Glassworks' custom lighting designs are featured in luxury and commercial properties throughout Texas.
Our free glassblowing demonstrations show the process of crafting molten glass into exceptional art. You'll see artists use a variety of materials to create the brilliantly colored designs displayed in the gallery.
Tim deJong - Owner, Head Gaffer:
Tim was born in Saskatchewan, Canada. He studied ceramics, sculpture and glass at Alfred University in New York. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in glass art from Tyler's School of Art at Temple University located in Pennsylvania.
In 1991, Tim came to Texas on vacation and fell in love with the Texas Hill Country. Within a year of his visit, he purchased property and opened Wimberley Glassworks just south of the village of Wimberley TX. Tim is the sole owner and employs three other full time glassblowers.
In 2006, WGW moved to a new and larger location. What started as a small shop with a few lawn chairs for visitors to view glassblowing has grown into an air-conditioned shop with seating for 90 people. Tim has built WGW into the Southwest's premiere art glass and custom lighting studio. Wimberley Glassworks collections and lighting can be seen in homes worldwide.
