Overview

A great value for money for this hands-on experience! Your chance to try to work with the famous Murano Glass, especially the blowing technique which is the oldest and the best-known one. Working the glass is extremely hard and it takes a long time to be able to do it, but this is going to be your first step into this world. An expert glass master will take care of you, first showing you how the famous Murano glass works and then it’s your turn! The glass Master will follow you during the experience. After this experience, you will visit our showroom to see the big artworks produced in our factory. It is a family-run glass factory, the oldest one still belonging to the founder.

Meeting points

Guests have to reach the Gino Mazzuccato Glass Factory, located at Fondamenta Manin 1. They enter the Glass factory and reach the main office or ask to any member of the team.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

Once travelers reach the Gino Mazzuccato Glass factory, they will meet a member of our staff that will take care of them. The glass factory is located in a former Monastery, in the best location of the island, overlooking the Venice Lagoon. The activity will start by watching the Glass Master working. Travelers will see how he produces glass art pieces and then they will blow the glass along with the master. During this experience there will be a member of our staff explaining about the glass history, the materials and the techniques of production. After this experience they can visit the rest of the glass collection. The glass blown by the travelers has no possibility to be taken away with them. That's because after it's been shaped and worked, the glass has to be cooled down slowly to be tempered and it takes about 24/48 hours.

Lovely activity in Murano

Published on Oct, 2024

Was short but sweet and watching the master at his work was amazing. He made a horse by pulling molten glass with tweezers, I couldn’t do that with clay. Kids were also allowed to blow glass under supervision and they loved it.

Awesome!!

The glass blower made objects in front of us. The experience was interesting and informative. Murano is a beautiful island to visit.We really enjoyed it.

So glad we went for the experience

Blowing glass for myself was unforgettable and very fun, even if it was a short experience. We were happy to have the experience over a free souvenir and to be able to choose a souvenir of our own. It gave us an appreciation of the difficulty of controlling the glass and gauging the pressure to make actual parts. It was cool to hear stories from the glass master and see the passion in person. The demonstration included a few different techniques and parts they actually sell and you could later see in the shop, which we also enjoyed.

Amazing tour
