This is a beautiful plate/object made of "Murano Glass," a world-renowned glass craft tradition from Murano, Italy. It features a clear and grape-colored marble pattern. The characteristic brilliance and rich iridescence of the glass material are exquisitely fused. It also makes a statement as a modern object or interior decoration. This is a work of high artistic value, finished by hand with high technology and quality cultivated through tradition. Bubbles, characteristic of handmade glass manufacturing, can also be seen. Murano glass carries over 700 years of history and tradition. As the name suggests, its center is Venice, Italy. Medieval Venice was born by absorbing excellent Islamic glass art in the process of becoming the center of world trade. Murano glass is also called "Venetian glass," but Murano is an island about 1.5 km northeast of the main island of Venice, and it is also called "Murano glass" because glass manufacturing was concentrated there. It is said that, like the famous Swarovski, the workshops were moved from the mainland of Venice to the island of Murano to protect the secrets of its manufacturing process.
