Discover the centuries-old art of Murano glass blowing with a visit to Gino Mazzucato in Murano.

Upon arrival at the factory, witness a 20-minute demonstration of various glass-making techniques, including the blowing technique – the oldest and most renowned – and the sculpture technique. While the glass master is at work, a team member will guide you through each step of the process. Then, explore the showroom featuring exquisite artworks crafted by glass masters, or the souvenir shop for smaller glass works. Before departure, receive a complimentary gift from the Gino Mazzuccato Glass Factory, an artistic glass piece to serve as a lasting memory of your experience.
