Hopping of the vaporetto and wandering through narrow streets, I felt an air of anticipation. I arrived at a quaint workshop, where our master artisans welcomed me warmly. We are so lucky to visit Murano every year. Watching them work was mesmerizing,  their skillful hands transformed molten glass into delicate, intricate shapes. The heat, the glow and the rhythmic movements created a hypnotic dance.

One artisan Marcello, invited me to try, guiding my hands as we crafted a glass square — a new design he was developing — and we thought the results were stunning. It was like each necklace had 10 masterpieces of art on a chain. The experience was surreal, connecting me and our Stauer gang to centuries of tradition. Marcello explained this Avventurina technique was developed in the 17th century, and involves infusing glass with 24k gold particles and rich gemtone colors to create a shimmering, starry effect. This method requires precise control of temperature and timing to achieve the desired sparkle without compromising the glass’s integrity.

Leaving with the beautiful glass necklace, I felt a deep appreciation for the artistry and passion of Murano’s craftsmen. My journeys to Murano are a blend of history, creativity, and enchantment that I’ll continue to treasure. The legacy of Murano glass, from its origins in the Middle Ages to the exquisite Avventurina style, showcases the ingenuity and dedication of generations of artisans who have kept this art alive.
