This magnificent blown Murano glass bowl features rich colors with extraordinary depth and radiance and presents a fine example of the most famous and distinctive ancient Murano technique- Millefiori (a thousand flowers)- that has become a trademark of Murano glass-making. Vivid stylized flowers on rich golden background with generous 24K golden dusting on the outside create an impression of a fairy-tale quilt, whose fragile beauty is beyond comparison. The amazing look of millefiori glass is further enhanced by the unique "fazzoletto" shape (means handkerchief in Italian), invented by Murano masters to create exquisite weightlessness and elegance of hankerchief folds in glass. This beautiful authentic Murano glass bowl was painstakingly created by hand using only traditional glass-making methods by a third-generation Murano maestro, whose work is displayed at exhibitions and in museums worldwide. It will make a perfect centerpiece on your table and will bring a glimpse of famous Italian design and Venetian opulence to your home. This elegant bowl also makes a uniquely appropriate luxurious present to the special people in your life, as it is truly a one-of-a-kind piece of art.
Measurements:The bowl is approximately 4 1/2 inches tall and 8 1/2 inches in diameter in its widest part. This Murano glass masterpiece is signed by the master. Attached sticker further proves its Murano origin, as does the certificate of authenticity that comes with the bowl. Because each item is a unique work of art made by hand, slight variations of colors and patterns are possible.

Glass of Venice performed very well. Everything I expect from a well run company. Unfortunately, the Tax man in England is also very efficient and I don't think it will be worth while buying any more until English taxes come down.
Sincerely.

Workmanship
It all starts with cutting special Millefiori canes into small pieces and carefully sorting them by hand inside a Murano Glass factory in Venice, Italy. The next step is dipping a ball of hot glass into the bowls of Millefiori pieces of appropriate colors to create a unique design and pattern. Then the master holds the glass inside a hot furnace until the Millefiori beads get completely infused into the surface of the future glass object. Next, the master shapes up the object turning it into a Murano Glass bowl, centerpiece or a plate using only very simple instruments to stretch and form the glass, creating waves and folds in its surface so real that they seem to be moving. Going back and forth between the furnace and the bench, heating, blowing, shaping, twisting each piece, artisans create Murano Glass Millefiori centerpieces, vases, bowls, ashtrays and decorative plates based on decades of experience in their factories and workshops on Murano island.
