点评:The Corning Museum and their gift shop is phenomenal. We absolutely love it and have to visit when we go to the Finger Lakes.
They teach you the history of glass from the Egyptians through modern times. It’s so interesting to see what materials were available so long ago and well preserved they are vs modern techniques. Every piece tells a story. It’s such a beautiful museum with lovely staff.
They also have a great gift shop with unique pieces for all price points. We always get beautiful Christmas ornaments. I also got gorgeous glass flowers and a bird that I enjoy daily. In part of the shop, there’s a back room where you can buy kitchen items from Corning. We got a really nice set of flower dishes that we love.
It’s a must visit in Corning and very close to town.
翻译:康宁博物馆及其礼品店简直棒极了。我们非常喜欢这里,每次去 Finger Lakes地区时都一定会造访。
博物馆向游客介绍了从古埃及时期直至现代的玻璃制作历史。看到远古时期所使用的材料如今仍保存完好,再对比现代工艺,真的非常有趣。每一件展品都诉说着一段故事。这是一座极美的博物馆,工作人员也十分亲切友善。
他们的礼品店同样出色,出售各种独具特色的商品,价格也适合各种消费水平。我们总是能买到漂亮的圣诞装饰品。我还买到了精美的玻璃花以及一只小鸟,现在每天都欣赏它们。商店里有个后屋,在那里可以买到康宁品牌的厨房用品。我们买了一套非常漂亮的盛花盘子,我们可喜欢了。
这里是康宁必游之地,而且离镇中心很近。
