Characteristics of hand made Murano glass.Our policy is to be sincere with our clients so we feel obliged to fully explain what to expect from Murano glass which is made now as it was made a 1000 years ago: only hands and few tools, therefore this fine and precious technique is recognisable in the glass; clients who are not familiar with Murano chandeliers, please undrstand that:
Small signs left by cutters,pincers,no two parts exactly alike, slight variations of color and sporadic small bubbles are the result of this work.
