More Hide description

Medium Square Ruby Murano Glass Box is entirely handmade following the millenary Venetian tradition. Produced in the furnace with temperatures reaching 1400 °,unlike other colors glasses, the ruby glass color is given by the addition of 24 kt gold in the molten glass. the material is enclosed in the crystal glass and finally blown into a mold which can roughly define a shape and a size. In the end processing is left to temper slowly in special ovens for 48/72 hours. The glasscreation moved from the furnace to the Moleria worhshop to be modeled by hand with the aid of machinery through the use of grinding powders and using cold engraving techniques, "beating" (small incisions) or satin finishing. No two pieces are exactly the same because of their handmade nature. Small imperfections are not to be considered defects but merits that enhance the work done by hand. Glass does not contain lead and is pure glass. Finally, the hinge made with 24 kt gold or polished chrome plating is applied.
