A small orb of colour chaos, and we mean that in the best way. This little millefiori paperweight from Murano packs a wild amount of detail into a tight, round dome. Handmade slices of coloured glass — called canes — are arranged into a psychedelic flower patch and cased in clear glass. Bright, cheerful and slightly trippy.
Made using the traditional millefiori technique perfected on the Venetian island of Murano, these paperweights have long been collector favourites — for their craftsmanship, colour, and sheer joyful weirdness. This one is petite, cheerful, and full of detail. A great gift, or a bright little pop of art for your desk or shelf.

NOTE ON MURANO MILLEFIORI - Millefiori means "a thousand flowers" — and this traditional Murano technique lives up to the name. It's a slow, precise process that turns coloured glass rods into tiny cross-sections of pattern, then traps them forever inside clear molten glass. Looks sweet. Is impressive.
