Dale Chihuly (September 20, 1941; age 77 years) is an American glass sculptor and entrepreneur. His works are considered to possess outstanding artistic merit in the field of blown glass, “moving it into the realm of large-scale sculpture”.
Antica Murrina Venezia is deeply rooted in the wise ancient handcrafting of the Murano glass beads. Established by the Voltolina brothers in the 60s, the company has dynamically evolved keeping its traditions and promoting all around the world a quality product with the Italian design.
Chihuly defining principles in his work are Asymmetry and Irregularity, Dale has always been interested in architecture and the way that “Form” interacts with “Light and Space”.
Antica Murrina Venezia creates beads of light and color blooming through the creation of cheerful shapes.
@Chihulystudio and @AnticaMurrinaVenezia take the centenary tradition of art glass blowing and reinterpreted the world of light, shape, and scale, each one in their unique way.

Both are unique, Dale Chihuly in each piece, sculpture, exposition or installation and Antica Murrina Venezia in every ring, bracelet, necklace, earring or bead.
The two of them have unique craftsmanship, passion, innovation, and design.
Which both have been able to handed down from generations this practice or technique and taking it to the next level, where the society of XXI century can feel connected to this ancient art.
Each of them perspectives possesses elegance, femininity, and fluidity. Would you agree with us?
Hans Hofman an American painter once said: “In nature, light creates the color. In the picture, color creates the light”; …as the color creates the light in a piece of Chihuly or a bead of Antica Murrina Venezia.
