Tripcentral.ca presents Postcards from Europe. Here’s our Lara Noack.
We’re here at Vecchia Murano in Venice where you can come to see
a glass blowing demonstration. The tradition of glass blowing
is still alive in Venice. Special tools used in the glass blowing process
include pliers used to hand form the red hot glass,
a blowing pipe, an iron rod and large glass cutting clippers.
We’re here at a special room in the shop dedicated
to one of Venice’s most famous glass blowers.
All the pieces are so incredibly beautiful it,
it’s hard to decide which one to have shipped home.
They really are incredible works of art and, and no two pieces are alike.
