murano, blown glass

My birthday is in May, and this year will be a special one... I have asked my husband to purchase me a piece of Murano hand blown glass to add to my collection.  I found one online at a discount store that carries pre-owned Murano blown glass.  This piece is so beautiful, and it will go with my kitchen colors.  I was so delighted to discover the piece, and finding something the exact color of the accessories in my kitchen was an added bonus.  The art of hand blown glass has long been a collector's dream.  Finding Murano glass jewelry is another exceptional find for any collector.

Personally, I also love Majolica glass pieces.  Between the Murano, Majolica and the Murano glass jewelry, I now have about 27 pieces.  I love displaying my collection, and my husband made me a wonderful display case for the great room.  The first thing anyone sees when they enter the house is the beautiful pieces of hand blown glass and other glass pieces.  As art lovers, we know the true value of these works, and we will continue to collect and display throughout the years.  We also found we needed to add additional insurance to cover these exquisite pieces.  No problem...they are worth it!  Even my children are becoming collectors!  We knew we were in trouble when they asked their Father to make them a display case too!
