Explore Murano Glass & Sculptures collection at Spacio
Spacio curates Murano Glass & Sculptures from independent artists and studios in Venice, Italy. Every piece is hand-formed in fire, shaped with breath and tools, and finished with a jeweller’s eye. For Indian luxury homes, these sculptures add colour, light, and a sense of heritage to consoles, niches, and living rooms.
Our edit highlights classic and contemporary techniques—murrine patterns, sommerso layers, filigree cane, and aventurine sparkle—often accented with gold or silver leaf. The result is art that feels timeless yet modern, crafted to be displayed and passed down.
The Venetian craft behind Murano
Murano glassmaking grew in Venice and Murano island, where centuries of skill shaped unique methods for colour, clarity, and form. Artists combine tradition with innovation, creating figurative, abstract, and architectural pieces that glow in natural light.
Typical signatures include mouth-blown crystal, murrine tiles fused in the kiln, sommerso colour gradients, and inclusions of 24-karat gold or fine silver leaf. Each sculpture is individually worked, so no two pieces are ever identical—true collectible art for design lovers.

Styling Murano glass in Indian luxury homes
Let colour and light do the talking. Place a tall sommerso piece on a marble console near daylight, group smaller murrine forms on a teak credenza, or crown a dining room with a single dramatic sculpture on a pedestal. Murano glass pairs beautifully with brass accents, silk wallpapers, and dark wood tones common in Indian luxury interiors.
Frequently asked questions
1. What makes Murano glass different from regular glass?
Murano glass is mouth-blown and hand-finished on the Venetian island of Murano using centuries-old methods. Techniques like murrine, filigree, and sommerso create depth, pattern, and colour gradients that machine glass cannot replicate.
2. Which materials are common in these sculptures?
Artists work with crystal-clear soda-lime glass coloured with mineral oxides, often combining murrine tiles, aventurine copper sparkle, and inclusions of 24-karat gold or fine silver leaf. These elements produce luminous, layered effects.
3. Are the pieces durable for Indian homes?
Yes—when displayed correctly. Place on stable surfaces away from strong drafts and heavy traffic; use felt pads and museum putty where needed. Avoid direct, prolonged heat and clean gently with a soft, lint-free cloth.
4. How should I light a Murano sculpture?
Side or back lighting brings out colour layers and bubbles; warm LEDs (2700–3000K) enhance gold leaf and rich hues. Avoid harsh top light that flattens details or creates glare on glossy surfaces.
5. Is every piece unique?
Yes. Because each item is hand-formed and annealed individually, variations in shape, pattern, and tiny air bubbles are natural and desirable—signs of authenticity rather than defects.
6. How do I verify authenticity?
Spacio sources directly from Murano studios and artists. We share maker details and technique notes, so your sculpture carries clear provenance and collectible value.
7. What sizes work best for different rooms?
For compact foyers, choose 20–30 cm forms in clear or light tones. Large living rooms and stair halls suit 40–70 cm statements or a curated group on a pedestal; pair with brass or stone plinths for a gallery feel.
