The Orsoni Furnace in Venice has been crafting coloured glass mosaics for 135 years. They use methods which were handed down for 4 generations. Every bit of glass is handmade, and they are often seen on buildings all around the world. Right this moment, Orsoni is the final of its type – the one historic furnace permitted to function within the metropolis of Venice. However discovering the subsequent era is a battle. So what does its future maintain? We visited the artisan mosaic glass maker to learn how it’s Nonetheless Standing.

This art form is beautiful!

While I am really amazed that they are making the mosaics for the cathedral mentioned here, I can't get over the fact that they are funding the cathedral from tax payer money without giving me the option to decline, it's such a kitsch and unnecessary construction especially that those money would be better spent on so many other urgent things. It's crazy..
Does anyone know where to find these mosaic earrings made in collaboration with D&G? Can't find anything online, not even from dolce and gabbanas nor Orsoni's own websites.
constantino is fine 😭
Id love to be an apprentice there
Visited this place in 1999
What a joy to watch this !
This is an truly art. Not just the product but the process.
12:00 people rip off cathedral :))) im from Romania.
I sit and watch and as I do I cant help but wonder how much of this world takes products for granted and I think anyone who has that mindset should watch this video.
I was there! …and left a part of my heart. ❤
Amazing art
Even mosaic nowadays looks like photo. It’s a pity.
Maravilloso!!!
The beauty of glass has to be promoted and preserved continuously to be in people’s minds,incredible work by brilliant artists,thanks for sharing.
I thought the thumbnail was Mehdi from ElectroBoom
The sheer sadness on his face 2:05
I made it until about 12 minutes left. I had to quit it disgusted me so much to hear that Orsoni sold out to a "glass making firm" BOOOOOOOOOOO HISSS
8:17 YO YO YO you cutted, I want to know what he said. You rote "We ran out of young people" but he was clearly saying "If we ran out of young people we have to thank…" which means "if we ran out of young people it is due to…" TO WHO? Stop changing what they say. There are many translation which are off in this video, but that is clearly not an accident. Why did u do that
Yo iría encantada a aprender a trabajar ahi, lástima que estamos tan lejos.
"Welcome to our channel! In today's video, we explore a series of amazing metalwork art ideas
So sad to see the art left in a place 😢
I went to Venice and we went to a glass factory, maybe this one, which if i recal right plays a role in the gondolas as well. I cannot even attempt to describe how amazing it was, they took a bubble of glass and in minutes was a beautiful amazing Glass Horse Statue. Its amazing what they can do.
Very cool.
They really live from an art, stolen from Constantinople as they raped on our holy temples and stolen everything from our lives. At least, don't forget that this art is for iconography. For icons. So that god will be glorified as he should and not the artists. We hope you repent for your crimes and cry back to Orthodoxy for what you've done on the first alosis of the city of god..
Hi for everyone working . This working it's not easy and very take long time to came good and fine . I am like't so much . Good luck with best wishes . From my country Lebanon best regards.👏👏👏👏
A Renaissance of old architectural philosophies and a revitalized interest in monuments and unique crafts would help so much human history stay in business around the world, its not just this factory.
In Egypt, Papyrus, the renowned and famous ancient paper making technique that goes back to B.C.E., is almost completely out of business because the lack of land for growth and income of material has nearly driven both the business and the crop for papyrus itself into literal extinction. If that were to happen we would probably never see it again.
We need to save our history we dont understand how much we could get from it
did she say 1889???
Its crazy none of them are wearing gloves, or safety glasses when cutting the glass into tiles. How do you not get glass shards in you're fingers.?
No one mentioned Bisazza!
Fascinating and beautiful. The Italians are the greatest artists in the world. One small error at 8:23 Russia did not restrict gas supplies. The price of gas surged because Russian Gas was the subject of western sanctions. The international markets and domestic suppliers then leveraged the price and made vastly increased profits at the expense of ordinary people.
😂😂 yea nerver take responsibility tipical woman 😂😂
I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute! I love working with my hands and will gladly pick up the glass trade 🤩 Artistry and craftsmenship doesn’t pay in the US
Weeeey llevenme a Italia mi sueño sería ser mosaiquista
Ive never had any ideia of how precious and super delicate this work with glass were,its just…wow ,knowing now the true dedication and complexity of this works make me proud of knowing now
Dubai doesn’t have an emir it has a sheikh. Please try to use the correct terminology.
Just to be 100% clear kilns are not for hardening glass 😂
Just saying if they made a certain phalic part of a man and sold it tourist im sure they would sell and make alot of money. If mexico can make cups and ahot glasses and make good money so can they
as materials and methods become obsolete we eventually don't need them anymore. but I think the knowledge of these manufacturing crafts & arts must be kept alive through books.
Human and waste of resources!
i have been buying from orsoni for 20+ years..say hello to lucio. melody😊
