Murrine glass cane slices (process study)

What it means: Shared memories, developing skill and individual creativity.

Colored glass rods are arranged around a core to make murrine patterns. Related Italian and French glass-bead skills pass through workshops, and the objects can mark social occasions.

Often chosen for: Love & partnership · Family, home & belonging · Luck, joy & celebration · Strength & courage · Curiosity, creativity & wonder

Respectful use: Original glass-slice study only. Do not claim Murano manufacture or use certification marks without authorization. Contemporary designs and image rights need separate review.
