Murano Glass Jewelry

What makes Murano Glass special?  Perhaps there is a special kind of sand.. furnaces found only in Venice…

No.  What makes Murano Glass special is the talent of the artisans that make it.  In this video we watch a master and his apprentice construct an exquisite glass sculpture.  to become a master glass blower in Murano takes an apprenticeship of 10 years..  about 3 years longer than it takes to be called “Doctor”.

I enjoy watching talented people do what they do best, whether that is Tiger Woods making an approach shot to a green or watching a talented artist at their craft.  I hope you enjoy the video.
