Make a wonderful gift of Venetian beauty to yourself or the special people in your life.

Measurements: This drinking glass measures 4 inches in height, and the diameter at the widest part is 3 1/2 inches. The diameter of the base is 2 1/2 inches. It holds 12 oz or 350 ml of liquid. These glasses come very well packaged to avoid damage in transit, and each one is accompanied by the certificate of authenticity. A special sticker is also attached to each tumbler confirming its Murano origin.

Because each Murano Glass piece is a unique work of art made by hand using only traditional methods and tools, slight variations of colors and differences in patterns can be expected.

Sbruffo is a distinctive Murano Glass design, which features rough-surfaces and multiple colors flowing into each other. Sbruffo objects are made by putting layers of colored glass on top of each other streak-by-streak without polishing them, creating an impression of flowing glass. Using multiple colors and unique forms, the masters make tumblers, glasses, vases, bowls, and sculptures with sbruffo designs, which are instantly recognizable as authentic Murano Glass. Only a few Murano Glass factories still create sbruffo art glass objects, and many interior design aficionados, collectors and Murano Glass fans seek these objects of refined beauty and distinct Italian elegance.
