Perfect birthday activity

We really enjoed trying glass work for the first time. I was a bit nervous about trying it, but Dario made us both feel really comfortable and gave us the perfect amount of help and encouragement. It was my partner's birthday so Dario made it an extra bit special

Beautiful!

I gave the experience of glass processing to my husband and he was not very happy. Dario was a very good teacher, he explained each step precisely and without ever putting in trouble helped in the realization of a small object. Seeing how much work is behind it, how much preparation and precision in movements makes it clearer how valuable each individual creation is. I stayed there to watch and just for this it was worth it, I think that trying with your own hands is a unique experience!

Murano’s experience

Our instructor carefully instructed us on each safety rule when creating a glass object. He was by our side constantly and by the end of our appointment, we had created several colorful beads and objects. It was exhausting because of the concentration but magical that we created a piece of art.

Fantastic way of learning more about Murano glass

Such a fantastic experience. I had an amazing time! It was incredibly fun and unique to create my own Murano glass pieces. I made a couple of beautiful beads and bonbons!

What a fun experience!

This was such a wonderful and eye-opening experience! I'm NOT an artistic person, but I appreciate what artists can do. So, not knowing what to expect, I showed up for a one-on-one glassblowing explanation and then got to try my hand at it. He was so informational, using excellent English while explaining the science behind glassblowing. I felt safe, and had so much fun! The beads and candy are sitting on my dresser now. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, of any ability, who is interested in this fascinating art.

Hands-on Murano Glassmaking

This excellent hands-on glassmaking instruction was a highlight of my Venice trip. Dario was a patient teacher for this one-on-one introduction on a professional workbench where you'll walk away with a few small pieces you create yourself. Learn something new. Do it!
