Antichità al Ghetto

The Venice Glass Week 2021

New year, new edition of the glass festival par excellence: The Venice Glass Week is about to start again!

THE VENICE GLASS WEEK is the international festival that the city of Venice dedicates to the art of glass, with a programme that includes exhibitions, demonstrations, guided tours, online events and more. The fifth edition will take place from 4th to 12th September 2021.

Exhibition after exhibition, micro mosaic after micro mosaic, Antichità al Ghetto has reached its fifth consecutive participation in this magnificent international event.
This year we want to share two special collections with our customers, visitors and friends: the first, now ever-present in our shop, is our most recent collection of antique micro mosaics with title: “Still Life: When Nature Shines in Micro Mosaics“.

The catalog is in Italian and English.

Our second exhibtion aims to introduce, through its glassware, a place of the past full of charm and mystery, where science, alchemy and popular wisdom were mixed: the apothecary’s workshop. We will share with you a small but significant selection of antique apothecary vases in glass (either Venetian or à la façon de Venise) in an exhibition with title “Glassware in the Apothecary’s Workshop”.
