Let’s be honest, Venice is full of beautiful glass, but how do you really know which shop to buy from??? Rialto79 is the BEST shop to purchase from and I’ll tell you why.

Also, the owners were so nice; I wanted a piece of jewelry in gold but they only had it with silver, so the gentleman there made a new piece for me right in the store,...
