The art of Murano glass

Glassmaking techniques were once a state secret in Venice where, on the island of Murano, generations of glass makers have concocted exquisite works of art from a molten sand mixture. Today, the process may be common knowledge, but the craftsmanship and know-how of this Mecca of glass sets Murano an island apart. Seth Doane reports.

    We went to Venice in April, 2019. We made a trip out to Murano to see all the beautiful glass and we of course brought some home with us. It is an amazing place to see. Don't miss their glass museum, a must see!!!
