Venetian Glass: Dec.23rd Sunday 2 PM

[cid:part2.396CAF25.76DAB4EA@copper.net]
Venice was a most unlikely place to make the finest glass the world has ever known. It had none of the natural resources needed to make glass at all. Yet for 400 years it had no rival in technical refinement or beauty. The story of Venetian glass is one of art, war, commerce, and intrigue.
