La Fornasotta

What a treat it was to stumble upon this artist's workshop! He was welcoming and invited us to come into his shop while he worked and participate in the creation of the glasses he was working on. It was a great experience, and it brings me joy to drink out of the glasses we purchased from his shop now that we are back home.

Avoid tourist traps nearby the docks!
At La Fornasotta you can watch the traditional glass-making process for free!
They will explain the different steps and the proceso for the store are quite reasonable.

We felt very lucky to have stumbled across this place as our first stop on Murano. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, and we even got to participate in the process. I had been wondering how the glassblowers manage to create such intricate floral designs - now I know!

Great guide and nice demonstration, sadly they didn’t have any christmas baubles ready to buy this day, they were really beautiful.

Beautiful artwork. Nice place, no tourists. Very attentive staff.

We came across this workshop by walking randomly off the beaten path. Lucky draw !
Insightful explanations and demonstrations, original items which you won't find in the more common shops along the pier.

Absolutely amazing. Free demonstration of glass blowing! He was amazing! Staff delightful and all the glass was amazing. Make sure to visit. Just wonderful.

Come to visit this place in Murano! Such a fantastic demonstration of the blowing technic and Murano glass artwork! Perfectly explained, very interesting! Grazie infinite per tutto.

A brilliant and free demonstration, really friendly staff!

They were so kind, and masterful in their craft. I wanted to leave a buy a small souvenir and tip them for the demonstration, but they refused to take my money. Must visit.

Amazing small shop. Stumbled upon and they gave us a free demonstration on the spot, and a small piece of scrap for free. Go check them out!!!

My husband and I were so happy to have stumbled I to this shop on our day trip to Murano! Unlike many of the shops it is free to enter and watch a demonstration. The master was so entertaining and happy to be sharinh his craft! We learned a lot during our visit.

Had the fabulous opportunity of watching him create a lamp and vase this afternoon. He was exceedingly friendly, welcoming, and informative. Our visit to his fornassotta was the highlight of our day! Thank you so much Urban for your hospitality!

Beautiful to see the master doing his work. Very nice and friendly people. Definitely a must see in Murano

老闆很熱心介紹做玻璃的工序，產品也很美，價格也很實惠，我買了水杯，下次還會再光顧

Consiglio questa fornace a Murano, è poco defilata rispetto alle altre ma ci siamo divertiti un sacco a assistere alla lavorazione e creazione di bicchieri da acqua, il maestro vetraio e i suoi collaboratori sono stati gentilissimi a spiegarci tutte le fasi della lavorazione del vetro!! Dimostrazione completamente gratuita, abbiamo acquistato poi i piccoli “sassi” che hanno un prezzo giustissimo per la bellezza che hanno. Consigliatissimo!!

細心的介紹和展示，留下深刻印象！只是還要徒步旅行，很難揹著走啊。

Während unseres Sommerurlaubes besuchten wir Murano und durften eine Vorführung bei La Fornasotta sehen. Wir sind begeistert von den herzlichen Inhabern und der beeindruckenden Handwerkskunst.
Dieses Weihnachten nun eine ganz besondere Überraschung, eine echte Murano Vase von La Fornasotta! So wunderschön, herzlichen Dank.
Wir kommen gern wieder!

Magnifique.
Une chance d'être tombés par hasard sur cet atelier authentique. Ils ont été très accueillants. Rien à voir avec les gros ateliers plus touristiques.
Expérience unique pour notre fille.

Super ontdekking! Ligt een beetje afgelegen maar zeker de moeite waard! Je krijgt een gratis demonstratie van het maken van glas, door gepassioneerde Italianen. Het atelier zelf is ook enorm leuk aangekleed, overal komt het glas terug :) Mensen die dit met hart en ziel doen, top!!!
