What is your upcoming spring event? We all have at least one, whether we feel like it or not. Spring pushes us to remember we are, in fact, alive. Your spring events will require a primping touch. The season urges your renewal and some primping, so don’t ignore Mother Nature. It becomes harder to remain a couch potato by 7 pm without guilt waves pouring over us day by day. Look great and make yourself even feel great with a renewal primp piece for yourself.
While researching jewelry trends for the season, I came up with some wise advice from fashion bloggers. Primp with a new statement piece for your current wardrobe and save some money this tight season.
“While shedding a few layers is always exciting, there can be some trepidation about the shift into a new season. One can feel the added pressure to splurge on new clothing or to don recent trends when emerging back outside. But in this economy, dropping an entire check on new clothing isn’t exactly reasonable. So what’s an alternative to making your wardrobe feel fresh without spending a fortune on new clothing? The solution is jewelry.”
Dreamy Venice is happy to accommodate the trends, totally by serendipity! Our offerings will be perfect for you to appear totally on point for your special events this season as life reawakens.

What is so special about Murano glass? Since a picture is worth 1000 words, we are hoping that this little picture may give a hint. But there is a lot of history behind this little piece of jewelry. And a lot of drama.
Let’s start with Barbarian invasions of the now Italian mainland about 1500 years ago. Those communities, mostly from Rome, relocated to the Venetian lagoons to get to safety. Among the talented mainlanders who took over the lagoon islands were creators of glass. Other talents from further east , Byzantium and the Middle East added their expertise and we are still admiring the colors, styles and craftsmanship. That’s one of the things that is so special. Tradition is valuable is one of the special things.
Fast Forward to the 1200s – Murano is the World’s First Industrial Zone
The Renaissance is approaching and the world is sharing lots of ideas and commerce, glass is becoming the principal industry of Venice. Venice becomes the crossroads of the east and west with commerce. The Venetian Empire is a force to be reckoned with. Arts, government, politics and a full society are all alive. At the head of it all is the Doge, the head of the governing Great Council. Drama, political struggle, inspiration, art and passion are all heating up. (But this is not a full history post so I’ll move on.)
Working their busy furnaces throughout Venice, the glassblowers have a bad habit of burning down their buildings and those around them. So in 1291 the doge “banishes” this bustling creative commercial activity to the small island of Murano, where busy furnaces in the new industrial center of Venice is established. Murano is today recognized as the first established industrial park of the world, becoming the glass production center of the world. The first clear class is being produced and called “cristallo”.
More processes that were explored then are still used now. No other producers anywhere could recreate the secrets of color creation, metal infusion for luster and design innovation. And this is still majorly true. Glass was an international luxury good. Seeing the product in person, you identify a particular luster which is not detectable in any other glass production. Another what’s so special for me.

Life as a Renaissance Glass Master
Being a Glass master, you’d have a hard but pretty enviable life. Why? Being an esteemed part of the critical commercial class, you’d have some great privileges. You would special entre’ into noble society and handy legal protections. You’d probably want to keep the gig and even keep your family in it as well – which is exactly what happened. So therefore the tradition of Murano glass businesses as a family tradition was established. Industrial secrets were locked among the producing families. Innovation was exploding. The Venetian Republic limited the glass makers from leaving Venice without being granted permission to protect the secrets. There was big punishment for disobeying the laws – like death if you were caught spilling the beans on industrial secrets.
So those are pretty special valuations on a product so prized. I love the intensity!
The Value of My Involvement with Murano Glass
So what is so special about Murano glass for me is the quality, history and commitment to an industry by an entire business and creative class of society. We love offering it in a cookie cutter world.

So as much as this is a traditional look, new innovative designs are always in the works as well.

So what’s so special about Venetian glass? – its long history, development, drama and passion over 1000 years. But what does that mean for you? It promises a product that its creators are proud to offer. It promises the romance of a storied product that I fell in love with at first sight. Each piece we curate is expressive and individual; created for a special person.

Where do we fit in the fashion world? In the 21st century, personal style resonates all over our society as we “gently” roll through the decades. A strict adherence to dressing according to one’s matronly age is pretty much obsolete. We travel, socialize, work, entertain. We want to look and feel our best – for ourselves and those around us. That said, we really do know that styling oneself according to what looked great in 1973 may not be best choice today.
Judging by the scale of the fashion industry globally or even locally, there is infinite interest in mature style. And not without successful effect – some of the most fashionable women around us are those well into their fifties and beyond. We at Dreamy Venice love our curated collection of Murano glass jewelry attracting a wide range of age groups. However, our biggest boast that we spark attraction to a vibrant mature personality. She won’t shy away from a sparkling touch to her wardrobe. One of my personal enjoyments in dealing with Murano glass since 2006 is suggesting jewelry that brings an outfit to life with a special power. There is the special power of Murano glass jewelry – its colors and sparkle illuminate one’s skin tones and truly enhance one’s very best look. It’s a simple way to a little boost.
