DE LAURENTIS GLASS

I am a glass artisan from Venice, Italy with a family history of glassmaking spanning over 60 years. It all began with my father Giampaolo De Laurentis who was born in Murano. He started learning the art of glassmaking at the age of 14 in the 1950s. In the glassworks in Murano Sacca Serenella he learned the various techniques of glassmaking, specializing in milling and etching Murano glass. In the 1970s, he opened a glass grinding factory with 12 employees. In the 1980s, he preferred to run his own business with the help of family members, including my brother Stefano. My father became the best and only engraver in the island, receiving many requests for his work from around the world, especially from Arab countries and famous people. In 1986, he opened a shop in San Basilio to sell his works and my brother started learning the lampworking technique to commit time in the workshop. My brother's speed of learning brought after only 2 weeks already work orders... In 1990, I graduated in..
