Murano glass or also Venetian glass. The name is mainly because this glass is mainly produced in Venice. The whole process of making and decorating Murano glass goes back 1000 years. In Venice, craftsmen started to make jewellery out of glass. Although the production was very demanding, it was beautiful and very popular, especially among the upper classes.

The production of Murano glass is carried out in accordance with ancient traditions by melting silica sands. The precise handmade production using the so-called Murano technique guarantees the uniqueness, quality and originality of the jewellery. Each piece is unique and exclusive, the result of a work in which the passion of the creator is present. The wearers are women who have a clear style and their own identity.

Toto sklo je vyrobeno z oxidu křemičitého, sody, vápence a draslíku roztaveného ve speciální peci při teplotě 1500 °C, aby se dosáhlo kapalného stavu. Do skleněné směsi se často přidávají velmi tenké vrstvy pravého zlata nebo mincovního stříbra, spolu s různými minerály, které sklu dodávají jeho zářivé barvy a vzory. Například měď se používá pro jiskry podobné minerálům Avventuriny, zinek se přidává pro bílou barvu, kobalt pro modrou, mangan pro fialovou, zlato pro červenou. Výsledná tekutá skleněná směs je poté foukána nebo ručně vyráběna mistrovskými skláři v řadě komplikovaných kroků za použití zvláštních technik, jako jsou Millefiori, Sommerso, Reticello, Filligrana, Bullicante a mnoho dalších.
