GLOSSBLOWING

EXPERIENCE

MUSIC

These are the ingredients of the orovetro glass experiences; the ideal location in which to experience an extraordinary visual and sensory power: the memory, the sounds, the colours and the smells of one of the historic furnaces of murano, located along fondamenta dei vetrai, in the heart of the island. This is a complete immersion in the original atmosphere of one of the symbolic spaces of ancient glass-making practice. At the same time, this is an alchemical laboratory of mysterious knowledge and artistic perseveration.

IN 1291, THE MYTH OF MURANO WAS BORN WHEN THE DOGE OF VENICE DECIDED TO MOVE ALL THE VENETIAN FURNACES TO THE ISLAND. IN TIME, MURANO ASSUMED THE ROLE OF “NUM PLUS ULTRA” OF THE ART OF GLASS PROCESSING, BECOMING THE POINT OF REFERENCE FOR RULERS, NOBLES, AND ARTISTS THE WORLD OVER. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE ISLAND HAS BEEN WORLD-RENOWNED AS THE GUARDIAN OF THIS ANCIENT ART FOR MORE THAN A THOUSAND YEARS. THE TRUE VALUE OF THE ISLAND OF MURANO IS THE KNOWLEDGE, THE SECRETS, THE MANUAL SKILL AND THE SENSITIVITY OF THE MURANO MASTER GLASS MAKERS, WHO KNOW THE FRAGILITY OF THE MATERIAL, THE HEAT OF THE FIRE, AND THE RESULT OF THE TRADITIONS HANDED DOWN FOR CENTURIES.
An authentic Murano glass brand, born in 1998 from the common vision of Venetian entrepreneurs Manuel Tarlà and Davide Vianello, OroVetro Murano produces and selects exclusive art objects, made using the traditional techniques of Murano glass processing.
From day one, the company’s mission was to promote the absolute excellence of the works of art produced in this place on an international level. The best Murano masters worked here, alongside artistic associations from the world of sculpting, engraving, fashion design adn painting infusing all the magic of the island into their creations. Even then, the furnace was conceived as a space for creation, where demonstration spaces were set up alongside the furnace to bring the magic of glass art to life.
The noble soul of the glass, the purity of the shapes, and the harmony of the details all translate into extremely high quality artefacts that OroVetro Murano continues to produce, respecting the island traditions of old.
A love for excellence and craftsmanship at OroVetro Murano become the starting point for a continuous search for innovative technical and aesthetic solutions, which over the years has seen the involvement of emerging and established artists, leading to the development of collaborations with the world of architecture and important brands in the fashion sector.
In the the mid-19th century, Pauly & C. 1866 became a symbol of tradition and luxury in the artistic processing of Murano glass.
OroVetro Murano offers individual products and collections composed of chandeliers, tableware and sculptures suspended between a timeless allure and a new contemporary elegance, the result of a wise and delicate balance between artisan mastery and design planning.
