At Ngwenya Glass Village visitors can watch as decorative items are blown by hand from locally recycled glass that is collected by Swazi school children. Visitors are also able to browse the village's well-stocked showroom of glass items that range from glasses and jugs to vases, ornamental animals and tableware gift sets. The Glass Village was set up in the late 1970s and has gone from strength to strength ever since.
