Neodymium is a fascinating type of glass that is lavender in incandescent and sun light, but in fluorescent light it turns light blue.
There is a video of Sandro doing a glass demo on youtube called "Venice's Best Kept Secret" by "The Italy Guy". I am not allowed to include a link, so please google it if you would like to see it. He talks about how he will be the last in his family to carry on the tradition, and how the tradition overall will drop off in time as there are no more apprentices. Therefore, Murano handmade glass art will dwindle and become more rare over the coming years. This is a beautiful piece that would be a wonderful gift for yourself or someone you love. As with all handmade glass pieces there may be tiny bubbles or other minor irregularities that make it unique. less
