Bio:
For centuries, Murano has been at the heart of Venetian glassmaking. During the 1950s and 1960s, the island’s glassworks experienced a particularly creative period, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern sculptural forms, bold colours, and experimental surface treatments. Murano glass from this period is highly sought after today by collectors of Italian design and art glass.
