Murano Glass
Lampworking
is a technique that allows modelling a glass rod (full or not), making
the glass reaching a temperature such as to make it "soft". This
temperature is reached thanks to the use of a flame obtained from
disbursement contemporarily of methane and oxygen. This technique
permits to create different objects (such as beads, pendants, rings,
various miniature objects), whose value is derived from the ability of
the artisan workmanship and stylization. Thanks to this type of
processing, can be reached countless shades of color, mixing different
hot rods. The use of perforated barrel, also, allows the artisan to
create blown glass objects.
Working in fused glass
By
the term "glass fusion" means the construction of a new glass plate
that will serve to produce the objects and jewelry. This is done in an
assembling process, with which they are put together pieces of glass and
other materials (gold leaf, silver leaf, murrine cane zanfirico): the
various elements, if processed at very high temperatures, blend in
irreversible. The product, after being assembled, is baked in ovens at
high temperature (from 700 to 850 degrees), and thereafter, at the end
of the cooking cycle, is cooled very slowly in order to obtain a product
qualitatively optimal : the latter passage allows, in physical terms,
to reach again the molecular stability that the product possessed before
cooking.
