True alchemy was born in Venice in the 15th Century. In the flames of his furnace, a Maestro finally achieved clear colourless glass. Used to create hand made objects, chandeliers and mirrors of previously unimaginable beauty, delicacy and grace, Cristallo Veneziano became sought after as a symbol of exquisite taste. This craftsmanship remains unique to the artisans of Murano and has survived centuries of Venetian-style imitations. Mediterraneo continues the marriage between this artistic technical heritage and innovative design.
