Murrine, a glassmaking technique, first appeared in the Middle East over 4.000 years ago. The process was revived by Venetian glassmakers in Murano in the early 15th century. As a technique championed by notable glass artists particularly throughout Italy for thousands of years, murrine has long been valued for its extreme flexibility, versatility, and distinct ability to render complex, vibrant designs. Since late 19th century, it became a key element of 20th century Art Nouveau.
