Pukeberg Glasbruk (Pukeberg Glass factory) is (or better was) one of Sweden’s oldest and most well-preserved glassworks. Glass has been produced here since 1871; the former factory is located in a wonderful green environment nearby the town of Nybro. It is part of the so called Glasriket (the Kingdom of Crystal), a region in the Swedish province of Småland, where hand-blown glass has been made since 1742. Pukeberg is no longer a running factory and during my visit there were just a couple of ‘glass activities’ in the former factory buildings like a glass blower, a large glass shop and a smaller museum. Pukeberg is becoming more and more a centre for new (glass) activities.
