Bio:
Murano has been a centre of Venetian glassmaking since the Renaissance, renowned for its technical mastery and decorative innovation. During the 1950s and 60s, mirrors with artistic glass frames became popular, often adorned with flowers, beads, and organic elements in clear and coloured glass. These mirrors were produced in small workshops and combine traditional craftsmanship with the decorative aesthetics of the period, making them highly collectible today.
