The Italian word Bella or Beauty is often synonymous with Italy or Tuscany, so it should come as no surprise to find Beauty nestled in an art glass

and mosaic studio overlooking one of the world’s most beautiful cities: Renaissance Florence.

Mellini Art Glass and Mosaics finds its origins during World War II when a 16-year old Italian named Michele Mellini began to work in mosaics. After the war ended, Mellini studied more in this field and by the late 1950s, he was able to establish his own studio in Florence.
