Vintage Hand Blown / Hand Decorated Murano Gold / Red Flash Champagne Flutes

Murano glass is glass made on the Venetian island of Murano, which has specialized in fancy glasswares for centuries. Muranos glassmakers led Europe for centuries, developing or refining many technologies including crystalline glass, enamelled glass (smalto), golden glass (goldstone), multicolored glass (millefiori), milk glass (lattimo), and imitation gemstones made of glass. Today, the artisans of Murano are still employing these centuries-old techniques, crafting everything from contemporary art glass and glass figurines to Murano glass chandeliers and wine stoppers, as well as tourist souvenirs.
