Marina e Susanna Sent

Located on the island of Murano, Marina e Susanna Sent is a jewellery workshop specialising in the production of glass pieces such as sculptures, plates, and lampshades. The combination of innovation and traditional methods renders the Sent sisters' creations unique even though their work embraces simplicity. Don't miss two other shops in Dorsoduro and St Mark's Square.
