What makes Venetian glass so special are the materials used. These raw materials are rare and valuable. They are so valuable that many companies compete for them. Certain government restrictions like export bans, controlling purchases, and limiting production capacity were issued to keep these materials safe. Even with the government controls, a competitor, Terraferma, retrieved some of these materials from smuggling. These materials were Levantine Soda Ashes and Ticino pebbles. 

It was made by being burnt in a wood-fired furnace. The process was the glass being melted many times through water while being stirred in short terms. The glassmaker had to pay very close and precise attention to check on the furnace's maintenance.

The religious values Venetian glass offered was substantial to its historical context. It gave us a few stories involving Venetian glass (ex: The Emblem of the Chalice). This invention was also very well used in certain fashion trends like buttons, glassware, and more luxurious items.
