| Sassy and Sophisticated Design |
| The creative force behind BELLISSIMO! is Raenell Accetta. A leader in the world of glassware designers, her jubilant designs are inspired by the vibrant color that surrounds her South Florida studio. "I love working with glass, it is a sparkling multi-dimensional medium of ageless beauty. While creating designs, I continually turn the glass, viewing it from every conceivable angle in order to bring the design alive when combined with the brilliance of the light that passes through." |

| The Five Day Production Process |
| The five-day process begins with the hand painting of each item in the time-intensive manner of applying multi-layers of color, with individual curing times required between coats. Intense heat is applied during the two step firing process, followed by hours of gradual cooling in a tightly controlled environment. Each piece is then uniquely embellished with a hand painted BELLISSIMO! Signature Glass Gem. Lastly, the founder of BELLISSIMO! signs each piece to insure its authenticity. |
