Many Italians immigrated to Brazil in the early 20th century, including families from the island of Murano near Venice.

Brazil Artisan Empowerment Hub
Brazil is a land of diverse crafts — with an artistic heritage dating back more than 25,000 years. From ancient cave paintings to the region's exquisite pre-Columbian pottery; from African and Portuguese-influenced arts to vibrant surviving indigenous crafts, to the nation's passion for contemporary style — Brazil is awash with color and diversity.
More than fifty years ago, Antonio Carlos and Paulo Molinari set up their workshop with a small group of artisans. Today they have trained many more artisans and family members, who all work with them.
Maker BadgePreserving Traditions
Antonio Carlos and his brother, Paulo Molinari, learned the ancient hand-blown glass technique as apprentices of the Italian master, Aldo Bonora, who came to Brazil from Murano Island. After eight years, they opened their own workshop in 1962. Considered among the most brilliant and talented hand-blown glass makers in the country, they have trained a number of glass artisans and have formed masters that have worked with them for more than 30 years.
