1 Synthèse du marché
1.1 Introduction
Glass craftsmanship is a manual and creative process involving the fusing, blowing, and shaping of hot glass to create unique and decorative objects. The Italian market includes:
- Blown Glass Art Objects: Vases, sculptures, decorative objects made by hand using the blown glass technique.
- Glass jewelry: Necklaces, earrings, bracelets made with glass beads.
- Artistic stained glass: Stained and decorated glass windows used in architecture and interior design.
- Design objects: Lamps, mirrors, furniture accessories made from handcrafted glass.
The history of glass and its manufacture dates back to ancient times and is believed to have been an accidental discovery. The Romans contributed significantly to the development of the glass industry by introducing the blowing of glass inside molds and using it for windows. In Italy, Venice still represents a center of excellence for this type of workmanship. According to historians, the art of glassmaking was introduced to Venice by crusaders from the East during the 11th century. To prevent fires and protect the secrets of glassmaking, in 1291 a decree of the Great Council concentrated the furnaces on the small island of Murano. Murano became a renowned center for glassmaking and is still associated with the art of glassmaking today. An extremely transparent glass composition called "Cristallo" was developed in Murano.[Vetromarca]
