Lampworking is one of the most recognized Murano Glass techniques, which is used by Venetian master artisans to create Murano Glass sculptures and figurines, beads, pendants, rings, plates, frames, and drinking glasses under a small flame by twisting and turning glass canes and working with basic instruments to achieve a variety of rich colors and elaborate designs. Making each bird one at a time, carefully crafting details like eyes, beak and spread wings, the Venetian glass artisans show high level of skill and artistry that puts Murano Glass worlds apart from any other art glass.
