Murano Glass Slippers and other Millefiori figurines are made by hand in the famous glass factories of Murano island. Starting with a simple blob of glass, the master twists, turns, blows and shapes the glass to create a beautiful elegant slipper worthy of the most elaborate fairy tale. Working with the most basic tools such as scissors and pliers, same ones that their ancestors used for hundreds of years, Murano masters continue the tradition by creating Murano Glass figurines and sculptures that take us back to the times of genuine pieces of art serving as home decor.
