Murano...Master of Glass

by Applelyn - last update: Aug 1, 2006

When you think of glass, you think of Murano. When you see this tower, you know you have reached Murano. I was thinking why it was not made of glass:)

Everywhere is Glass

Wherever you go, you can see glass. Not just ordinary glass, they are art pieces. As I stepped into the galleries, I was just so amazed by their skill. I was not allowed to take any photos because a particular "countrymen" was known to have occupied their designs and promoted their products as Murano products. But this is a backyard of a resident and look how creativity she can be.

The flora

Even the flora is made of glass :) If they are made of candy, I will be the first to try them:P
