Millefiori Murano drinking glasses feature a vibrant "thousand flowers" pattern created using a glassmaking technique that originated in ancient times and was later perfected by Murano glassmakers. The term "millefiori" is Italian for "thousand flowers," reflecting the floral patterns that appear when the glass is cut into cross-sections. This technique involves fusing together rods of colored glass to create elaborate patterns, which are then sliced and applied to blown glass objects.

These glasses have become treasures in my own home. I reach for them daily because they transform even a simple glass of water into a small moment of beauty. I've curated this particular set combining my favorite Murano colors and patterns, but would be delighted to work with you on a custom selection that speaks to your palette.
