Seguso S.R.L., Murano, Italy
Seguso S.R.L. is an Italian glassmaking firm established in Murano in 1933, continuing a family tradition of Venetian glass production dating to the 16th century. The studio specializes in mouth-blown and hand-formed vessels, exploiting the thermal properties of molten glass to create sculptural forms in clear, colored, and layered glass. Seguso's postwar output combined technical mastery with modernist abstraction, producing objects that function simultaneously as functional ware and autonomous artworks. The company represents a continuity of craft knowledge specific to Murano's lagoon workshops.
