Murano Glass Beads

Venetian Glass Beads

If you’ve ever been to a fair or amusement park and watched a craftsman torch a piece of glass into beautiful and complex shapes, then you understand how amazing some of these works can turn out. If you love this kind of art then the next thing on your list has to be Venetian glass. Venetian glass are types of artwork originating from Venice, Italy. Specifically and more commonly from the island of Murano.

One popular form of this art is beads. Murano beads have captured people with their beauty and detail for many years. Manufacturing these little works of art is a delicate process but any craftsman will tell you that it’s will worth the wait. If you’re looking for a wonderful decoration, jewelry to wear or a gift for a loved one then certainly consider Murano beads.

The history of Murano glass beads although difficult to trace precisely, dates back as far as 1260. There are records indicating that Venetian glass was being produced even earlier than that. But by the 1200s it had become a major trade in Italy. In 1271 the Capitolare was created to form a body of rules on how glass shops were to be operated. Over the next 500 years it was updated and revised until 1776.

As you can see the history of modern Venetian glass work and Murano beads stretches back quite a ways. Regardless of their precise origins there is no doubt about their beauty and the craftsmanship that goes into their creation.
