par Maria Laura Berlinguer

Connue comme l'Ile du Verre, Murano est mondialement célèbre pour un processus artisanal qui, du Moyen-Âge jusqu'à aujourd'hui, a lié le "Made in Italy" à l'art de la fabrication d'objets en verre pour le quotidien. Vases, verres, lampes et décoration d'intérieur en général, se transforment en œuvres d'art grâce à la fantaisie des maîtres verriers.

The very first eyewear company was set up in 1878 in Calalzo di Cadore, near Belluno. Since then, Veneto’s district alone has been able to account for 70% of the whole global mid-range and high-end eyewear industry and control 50% of the global production of licensed big fashion brands. Still, this wonderful expertise has also its roots in Southern Italy.
