Anyone who knows me, knows that I Iove Murano glass. I owned a few small pieces long before I had a home to put them in. Once I did have a home, they became a feature in each room. Last week I treated myself to a full day in Murano. I was focused on visiting big name brands Venini (founded 1925) and Nason Moretti. I found a couple of inspiring pieces at Venini (above) but upon walking into Nason Moretti I really started to smile.  Fun, bright, beautiful glassware and pieces for the table.

NASON MORETTI (founded 1923)
NasonMoretti products are hand crafted by master artisans in stunning, classic and refreshingly modern styles and part of the great tradition of Murano crystal, glass, and stemware. They are everyday objects designed for people who seek and love to be surrounded by an atmosphere of true elegance. Each piece is signed and numbered and is as precious as a jewel.

I continued to wander around the picturesque island and found a few new favourites; Simone Cenedese and Barovier & Torso.

SIMONE CENEDESE (founded mid 1970's)
I had the pleasure of being shown through the entire Simone Cenedese showroom, the workshop, and meeting the designer. It was very inspiring. The product lines are interesting, vibrate and at times quite entertaining. I was drawn to the later, but they also create stunning lighting in both traditional and contemtporay designs and colours.

BAROVIER & TOSO (founded 1936)
Barovier & Toso specialise in creating decorative lighting solutions in Murano glass. They are all characterised by a personal and unique style. They describe their lighting solutions as being "destined not only to furnish ambiances, but also to create emotions, transmit positivity, making each room unique." They work with designers on significant projects throughout the world.

    Thinking about all I've written and said about Jayne Reid.

    I'm writing this because she's going far away,
    So something profound I want to say,
    So Jayne Reid if I may,
    You are the only person I know, who has truly "lived her life her way."

    In spite of the highest highs, and lowest lows, 
    Onward and forever upward she goes,
    How far nobody knows!
