Murano: A Ilha do Vidro - Fabrica De Cristais Em Veneza Na Italia | Ep.6

In this video, you will see the meticulous production of Murano glass, the most famous place in Europe for handcrafted glass pieces. Blowing glass is an ancient art, dating back thousands of years. Venice has long been a benchmark for high-quality, tasteful glassware. Since ancient times, owning a piece of glass from Venice was synonymous with status and wealth! Concerned about the frequent fires in Venice, in 1291 all the glass factories on the island were moved to Murano, an archipelago of several small islands connected by bridges, about a 20-minute boat ride from Venice. It is not possible to reach it any other way. Nicknamed "the island of glass," Murano is world-renowned for its coveted handcrafted glass pieces. There are several glass workshops in the city that offer demonstrations of the glass production process. During your visits, you can see the artisans working with glass live and then visit the incredible shops that look more like exhibitions of rare works of art. The pieces are made as they were in the past, a meticulous and handcrafted production, with admirable workmanship. Although it seems easy, it's not a job for just anyone; it requires a lot of skill and knowledge. This artisan, whose beautiful work we can admire, has been making glass pieces since he was 12 years old. Over time, Murano has become the main glass producer in Europe and an indisputable reference for exquisite and tasteful objects.
