Vitrum celebrates Murano: an ideal historical and artistic overview on the excellences of the ancient Venetian Glass Art since 1200 until today

Glass has always impressed artists and poets with its peculiar features. As it was a synonym for purity and fragility, over time it gained a special place in the heart of those who desired to be surrounded by “fragments” of delicate beauty. From its origins, Venice has been a vibrant centre of maritime trade flows. Thanks to the Venetian typical taste and an extraordinary intuition towards this investment, Venice created Murano in the late 1200s – which became the focus of glassmaking worldwide. VITRUM 2019 is proud to celebrate the work, creativity and skills of the Murano glass masters
