MILLIEFORI means "a thousand flowers" in Italian. The shade is manufactured from mosaic glass rods or canes called murine. The making of mosaic beads goes back to ancient Rome, Phoenicia and Alexandria, well the murine process originally began in the Middle East or ancient Rome about four years ago and was revived in the early 1500 on the Venetian island of Murano, where a multitude of glassmakers held a monopoly glassmaking for many centuries. They developed or perfected various techniques, and still manufacture magnificent glass treasures today. The process of making mosaic beats and canes alone is painstakingly meticulous, making them into vases, jewelry, weights, and lamps.
