  1. Hi, I just adore Murano glass and I have a small collection of unique pieces. I’m not a business. I have a never ending Art degree with 4 majors. I had a terrible car accident and can not do the work I used to do. I have just started making jewelry because I have use of my right hand again and I am really enjoying the work. I am learning all the time. I love having found your site, I’m enjoying learning more about Venetian glass which I have always wanted to find out more about. I’m very interested in every aspect of how the glass is made. The Internet is allowing me to interact with the world again and to learn more about what interests me. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to learn more about this wonderful art. Kat purring.

    1. VenetianBeadShop – What began as a fascination with the glass of Murano has become a way of life. Our webstore has all you will need to make jewelry, quality findings, stringing materials, Swarovski Crystals and a lot more, but our main focus is the Venetian Glass Bead. We have been an integral part in promoting Venetian glass beads throughout the world as well as helping to breathe new life into traditional Venetian techniques. A few years ago, we introduced our line of Venetian Dichroics to the US through as a result of years of efforts with our beadmakers in Murano. We continue to bring new and innovative ideas to this age old industry. Most recently, we developed the Furnace Glass along with our partner furnace in Venice. It's a blend of old glass making techniques to work with new fashion ideas. We remain a family owned business located in Santa Clara and Sunnyvale, CA, USA where we have been importing Venetian Glass and Murano Glass commercially since 1993. Our wholesale showroom has the largest collection of Venetian Beads on display anywhere.

      Hi Katherine, Glad you are enjoying our blog. Murano glass is very addictive – just read our history. And making jewelry is very good therapy and also addictive!
