About this experience
This experience offers a detailed look at the operations of a Murano glass workshop. Participants will learn about the glass production process, starting from the Batch Room where ingredients like sand are mixed to create glass, which is then melted in a 1400°C furnace. The tour continues in the Hotshop, where guests will observe the melting process and how various tools are utilized. Finally, in the Coldshop, the focus shifts to machines used for carving, drilling, cutting, flattening, and polishing glass. This tour is suitable for those interested in craftsmanship and the art of glassmaking. It may not be ideal for individuals seeking a purely sightseeing experience without educational content.
