On a recent holiday break to Venice, Italy, we stopped by the nearby Italian island of Murano which is famous for its Murano glass glassworks, glass art and glass blowing. We stopped by one of their Murano glass factory shops where for a small admission price, they let you sit and observe how they did demonstrations of how to make various venetian art pieces. Here is the "making of" video for how their master glass blower made a two handled lightly colorful decorative flower vase.
It was a blown glass vase made of clear glass, but had little pieces of multicolored / colored broken glass chips rolled into the clear glass to add little pops of colourful accents.
Note: In the edit I did cut / fast-forward through the time that the glass was being heated in the oven because I thought it wouldn't make for great viewing - so bare in mind that the time frame shown that the glass was in the oven in this video is not exactly what it was in real life.
