Hand-made molten glass jewels

Vetrofusione Chiara Valentini

The Experience

Glass, moulds, paints, pigments, grisaglia, pliers, glass cutters, brushes … A world of transparencies and strong tones, sparks and colourful storms.
These are the countless nuances of Chiara’s workshop and of her creations, inspired for the most part by the pleasure and conviviality of sitting around a table. Just like a kitchen is the heart of the house, the workshop where she designs, cuts, creates, and bakes is Chiara’s favourite place.
Her work requires constant research where she combines fantasy and professional skills to create new forms of expression. We will learn about her art by sitting next to her, listening to her narration, and observing her
hands. Above all, we will do our part by creating a small piece of jewelery using the molten glass technique.
Using pre-cut glass shapes, it will be possible to create our own glass necklace, with original and unique shape, design, and colour pattern. Just a passage in the oven before you can wear it… Exactly like a dish before you can eat it.
