Murano glass is actually made using raw materials such as sodium oxide, sodium, nitrate and arsenic, along with flux, or melting agents. It is blown and formed at low temperatures. The sodium oxide content of the glass mixture dictates the speed of solidification. The more sodium oxide, the slower the rate of solidification. In the crafting of glass, nitrates and arsenic may be added to the mixture to create an opaque surface free of bubbles.

The color and transparency of a Murano glass piece are commonly incorporated into pieces such as beads and pendants. Every unique design is handcrafted by a Murano glass blower.
