Country: Italy
Duration:
01:00 hours
Description
Create your own glass bead with local artists in a professional studio: our clients include Fendi, Dior, and Green Wolf Studio in London.
Step into the world of glassmaking and discover the magic of molten glass up close. In this hands-on experience, led by two glass artists, you'll get a brief presentation of our work and a live demonstration of the basic techniques.
Then you'll make your own decorated glass bead, working directly with the blowtorch under our constant guidance. An accessible, engaging, and fun experience, designed for those who want to try glassmaking and take home a unique object made with their own hands.
We'll be waiting for you in our Murano studio, where we make our products – mainly jewelry and small sculptures – and where you'll find our contemporary art pieces.
Andrea Penzo, a glass artist for over 30 years, a son of art and a theorist, brings his extensive experience to the table, complemented by the communication and interpersonal skills of Cristina Fiore, an artist and teacher.
A laid-back and creative place to get inspired.
