*Murano is a small island located north of Venice. It was once the center of a thriving trade and still today exists as a popular city known for glassblowing. It is suspected that Europeans began the trade in the 8th century after explorers discovered the art form from trade with Middle Eastern countries. Although glass was used prior to the 8th century in Europe, it was molded rather than blown, and the new art of glassblowing made for a thriving industry.
Murano glass remains popular today throughout the world. It is a great tourist attraction and is often purchased as souvenirs less
