Murano glass cup

Wine glass 22.66 oz. Murano Glass. Orange/light blue.

Since the 15th century the small island of Murano in Venice has become the most famous centre for the production of handmade glass. It is not only the oldest known type, but also one of the most beautiful in the world. The designs have developed into shapes and colours that are as sophisticated as they are complex, turning them into true works of art.

These pieces have been made for the Museo Del Prado by the company Due Zeta, specialists in the manufacture of Murano glass following craft manufacturing techniques, with a creative force in which their designs combine the high quality of the material with a modern style, evoking with ranges of colours and tonalities that we find in these works of art.
