You won’t regret! - If you want a fun, artistic activity to do; Please come and experience this class! Massimilano created such a unique experience! Not only did we learn a bit about the history of glass art, we also got to mold the glass into our own unique pendant. If you’re an anxious individual ( like myself ) I promise you this is a welcoming environment and at no point did I get overwhelmed and feel uncomfortable. P.s: you won’t be disappointed with any glass art you purchase from massimilano. It’s stunning and I hope to be able to visit his shop again one day.

A Highlight of Venice - My friend and I had the BEST time! It definitely was our favorite thing we did in Venice. Everything was explained clearly and it was interesting getting to talk with someone local. The host went above and beyond making sure we made our pendants exactly how we wanted and showed us everything step by step. His work is incredible and overall this experience is an 11/10.

Great glass experience - Max is a great and patient teacher. What seemed overwhelming and impossible at first for a novice, Max broke it down and helped and supported through each step giving you confidence. Max also focused on safety providing glasses, the entire process felt very safe despite working with high temperatures and fragile glass. We were also offered cool drinks throughout the experience which was very welcome on a hot day in August. At the end, you walk out with your own glass ‘pendant’ that Max puts on a string for a necklace. We throughly enjoyed this experience, with just the two of us and Max, and it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Venice.
