The Murano glass creations from this brilliant Italian collective represent a magnificent bringing together of the most cutting- edge and innovative of design principles and the secrets of the traditional craft of glass blowing.
Before being brought to life by the master glass-makers of the lagoon, the works are conceived on the drawing boards of world renowned designers, carrying on a tradition dating back to the sixties, which thanks to Luciano Vistosi has led to collaborations with designers of such caliber as Gae Aulenti, Angelo Mangiarotti, Vico Magistretti, Alfredo Chiaramonte, Marco Marin, Michele De Lucchi, Oriano Favaretto, Mauro Olivieri, Romani e Saccani Architetti Associati, to name just a few.
Their blown glass is produced with a unique blend. Once reduced sodium to a minimal amount, the glass seems to acquire the characteristics of steel: it is resistant and does not get opaque with the passing of time. The handcrafted made of every single piece is unveiled by imperceptible differences on the surface.
Having the foresight apply glass to design, bringing together matter and thought, an ancient art and creative drive, was crucial to Vistosi’s initial success, rightly considered to be the forerunner of a new era. Today this philosophy lives on in their search for novel and sophisticated techniques in both production and the application of materials.
