Glassblowing and goldsmiths Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, where Rådhusgata almost meets Markensgate, you will find Galleri Knapstad, where the careful hands of two generations of the Knapstad family have created the most beautiful works of art over several decades. The oldest generation are goldsmiths. Surrounded by magnificent nature at the very end of Flekkerøy, they create unique pieces of jewellery that are strongly inspired by the nuances of nature. The jewellery is brought into the city, where it is displayed in the gallery, together with the colourful artistic works of glass created in the gallery studio. The heart of the gallery is definitely the huge oven where the works of glass are fired. At temperatures of up to 1160 degrees, liquid masses are transformed into exquisite, colourful artistic glass. This exciting process from start to finish can be experienced by visitors to the gallery.
