Blenko x Urban - Color Study Murine Series

6 Pieces Created February 2026 Furnace Urbini Glass Studios Session ID: MU020426

Murine glass showcases one of the most intricate and time-consuming techniques in glassmaking. Each piece begins with carefully fusing tiles of colored glass to create a detailed pattern. Once fused, they are then blown into a mould. Because of the complexity of this method, every murine piece takes significantly longer to produce than standard glassware. The design runs through the body of the glass, not just on the surface, creating rich depth and vibrant color in textured pieces. Each item is handcrafted, making no two pieces exactly alike. Subtle variations in color, pattern, and form are a natural part of the process and contribute to the unique character of every piece. The time and artistry invested in each work make murine glass especially prized by collectors and admirers of fine craftsmanship.
