From glass sculptures to perfect plastic, made by Dino Rosin, a master glassmaker with an admirable know-how who masters all the secrets of the art of glass. His creations are tinted with rainbow shades thanks to the use of chalcedony which adds a touch of originality to all his sculptures.

An enchantment, this glass factory. We find it at the end of a long alley. The business is a family one, run by Raffaele, his brother Mauro and his sister Claudia, forty-somethings who have succeeded their father, who founded the company in 1989. The workshop is located on the first floor. You may have the chance to observe these craftsmen at work. They work the glass with a blowtorch, shape it, decorate it, then place it in the oven before letting it rest. Meanwhile, on the first floor, the store welcomes customers who have come to purchase their subtle and exquisite works.
