Aventurine is a precious glass of blue color, enriched with copper inclusions that give it a distinctive sparkling effect. Its origins date back to the early 17th century, attributed to Venetian glassmakers. Currently, this material is mainly used in the creation of art objects and is appreciated for its ability to reflect light in a unique way.
In the 17th century, the name "aventurine" originated from "avventura," meaning an uncertain and risky operation. Venetian glassmakers first produced aventurine by accident, spilling copper fragments into blue glass paste. By 1644, the technique was codified, and Venetian aventurine artifacts became highly prized. The lithograph depicts the Doge visiting workshops on Murano, the center of glass production.
Aventurine is a challenging material to tame, precisely because of the copper fragments inserted into the molten glass, which arrange themselves uniformly during the slow cooling process. To create components with a high degree of precision, aventurine is cold-cut, as if it were a hard stone. Today, the production of this material is still very limited precisely because of its complexity and the significant know-how required.
