Venice is a city connected through a series of narrow canals. And one of the best ways to experience Venice is on a gondola. A gondola is driven by a gondolier, who has learned the art of voga alla veneta, the Venetian style of rowing (standing up and facing forward) from his father. Our Venetian Gondolier is decorated in a mix of shiny and matte lacquers, as well as acrylics. Subtle glitter accents add sparkle. This ornament is hand-blown and hand-painted in Poland. It will come to you in our custom gift box, nestled in acid-free tissue paper. 4 inches high.
