The coating is similar to a gemstone and is formed when ultra thin laters of metal oxides and quartz crystal are vacuum deposited on glass. Fascinated by this high-tech medium, with its unique light reflecting properties, Venice developed her own glass casting technique, calling it Space Glass for its optical illusions and shimmering qualities that resemble the cosmic river of the Milky Way.
Each piece of space glass is lovingly hand made by Venice, in her Sydney glass studio.
