Glassy Brick
by Sant Anselmo

The history of Murano glassmaking dates back to the 12th century. Through many generations, local Murano glassmakers have been exploring and perfecting their craft, developing the most sought-after and precious glass in Europe. In the 1920s, Art Déco was all the rage and became quickly widespread; this inspired Murano craftsmen to create glassware with a focus on interior design, characterized by a wonderful synergy between simplicity and functionality. Today, that ethos still reverberates with the Venetian artisans. Their magnificent and unique work is now the centerpiece of a new range of bright, transparent, colored glass bricks.
