About this product

Product Information

The islands of Murano, in the lagoon of Venice, have been a sheltered community of glass artists for at least 700 years, leading the world in blown techniques and design of beautiful and functional objects. This new study captures the artistry of Murano glass as well as the multi-generational world of discovery, innovation, alliances, and realliances that have fostered that artistry. With 250 stunning color photographs of Murano glass art and a detailed text that includes historical information and family trees, this book is original in its comprehensive presentation of the artists, both past and present. The seasoned collector will find this an invaluable sourcebook for untangling Murano relationships and tracking individual careers. The novice and curious visitor will find an easy, carefully-structured introduction to the bold beauty of Venetian glass.

    Select Murano images, good text

    This large hardcover book is more about historical information of the different glassmakers and glass companies from Murano, Italy. The pictures are good and mostly color, however, they are very selective and you get more vases and tableware than figurals, which is disappointing to me as I had hoped to identify several figures done in the sommerso method (very little about the latter is covered)

    Murano Magic by Carl T. Gable (2004)

    Absolutely mesmerizing book for Italian glass collectors. Wonderful history on the artists and their styles. Gorgeous photos, family history. Gives one a good background and base for getting to know Italian glass. Excellent resource.
