What you’ll actually do — Step by Step

Welcome & safety briefing

At arrival, you’ll be warmly welcomed into the workshop and introduced to the artisan team. After a short safety briefing, you’ll receive a protective apron and safety glasses. Then, you’ll get ready to step closer to the magic of the furnace.

Live glassmaking demonstration

Before you start, you’ll watch a live demonstration by a Murano glass master. You'll see how molten glass is gathered, shaped, and transformed — an inspiring introduction that will guide your own creation.

Create your Glass Heart or Flower

Seated at the workbench, you’ll be guided step by step by our artisans. Using traditional tools and gentle heat, you’ll shape your own heart or flower from hot glass — stretching, twisting, and refining it with your own hands. No experience needed!

Final touch & cooling
Once your piece is complete, it will be placed in a dedicated cooling oven to solidify safely. While it rests, feel free to take photos, ask questions, or explore the workshop. Your finished creation will be ready to take home — a unique, handmade memory of Murano.
