ANTICA MURRINA are the specialists in working
Murano glass.
It is the only company in Venice that has
managed to combine craftsmanship traditions,
industrial philosophies and fashion design
and now holds a leading position in all the world
markets.
Luxury and simplicity, fashion and
tradition, Antica Murrina jewellery is the
result of the constant challenge between development
and tradition.
Necklaces, bracelets, rings, watches,
pendants, charms, all top design luxury,
inimitable jewellery that is easy to wear but
affordable, to make the woman who wears them unique.
Antica Murrina jewellery is entirely handmade
and decorated, following the antique traditions of
expert Murano glassworkers.
One of the features that distinguishes glass from
other materials, such as metal, is the way it
solidifies.
Solidification is done gradually, passing from
1400°C, when glass is in the liquid state, to 500°C,
and in this space of time the glass can be worked
over the flame: this is the magical moment
when the Antica Murrina Design takes shape, creating
collections of the most modern Fashion Jewellery,
but entirely made respecting the traditional methods
for Venetian glass beads, where colour,
transparency and depth play their inimitable role.
We use the term Fashion Jewellery, because
the corresponding Italian term “bigiotteria –
i.e. costume jewellery” although linguistically
correct, does not do justice to the craftsman’s
art and our constant search for new designs,
which are the basis of all our creativity.
To work the glass manual ability, experience and
sensitivity are needed, which only a few expert
glassworkers have today: Antica Murrina knows
the importance of this unique experience and has
began a sort of industrialisation of the
handmade production, training hundreds of able
craftsmen, organising them to a strictly
industrial logic respecting their quality of life
and safeguarding the environment.
