AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

These splendid Avventurina hand-blown glass goblets are made entirely by hand by Italian master glassmakers. Each piece is unique, the result of skilled artisanal work according to the ancient tradition of artistic glassmaking.

Made in colored glass and embellished with Avventurina glass granules, these glasses stand out for their extraordinary brilliance and elegance. Avventurina glass is a refined technique that originated in Venice, on the island of Murano, around 1620. It is a translucent crystal paste, inside which tiny threads or copper and metallic oxide crystals are suspended, capable of creating luminous reflections similar to aventurine quartz.
The name “Avventurina” derives precisely from the difficulty of its production: even the most expert glassmasters faced a real adventure to achieve this unique effect, hence the origin of the term. Glasses suitable for amaro and shots.
