LUME (LAMPWORK)
The lume, or lampwork, technique was already in use during the Renaissance in Venice, and consists of the modelling of glass which has already been made into long canes called canne.
The canes are melted and shaped under a horizontal flame fueled by methane gas and oxygen, called the cannello, or blow-torch.
The glass, once softened by the heat, is then modelled with specific instruments, to create final products of varying complexity.
The Vetreria Pisani opened to the public in February 2016 at 2279/A in San Polo, Venice, a development of the existing wholesale business established in 2008. A business leader in the wholesale commerce of beads, decorative glass objects and metal findings. Vetreria Pisani offers a wide range of products made in authentic Murano glass. Products already available wholesale are displayed alongside exquisite works signed by master glass craftsmen in Murano.
