Story Angles
Spotting fake "Murano"
Mass-produced glass sold as "Murano" is one of the most common imitations in the souvenir and online market, above all in jewelry. We can explain, with examples, the signs that separate a genuine hand-made piece from a copy, and why the price is so often the giveaway. Background: our guides on recognizing authentic Murano glass and on Murano glass jewelry.
A seven-hundred-year-old craft, sold in eleven languages
Murano has made glass since the Venetian Republic moved its furnaces to the island in 1291. We talk about what it takes to bring that tradition to buyers who will never visit the island, and what international buyers ask about most.
