Venini glass products, first created in Murano in the 1920s, are immediately recognisable all over the world for their exquisite, modern shapes and lines.
There is no past hindering the curiosity of Paolo Venini – a brilliant man from Lombardy who made his way to Murano – about contemporary design. Through a series of images of today and yesterday’s fragile masterpieces, this volume tells the story of the Venini furnace and of the artists who create the magnificent shapes of its glass products.
