In this course, it's going to be worked on decorative glass techniques such as Cane, Murrini and Lattichino. This kind of workshop can be useful for both glass blowers and glass fusers. The artist will bring his personal optic molds and Cane plates to the course. It's also  needed to have some bar color for Cane as well as powders for the Murrini.
