Venetian craft, contemporary design

Patrizia Volpato describes its work as classic, elegant collections rooted in Venetian culture, with Murano glass and crystal as the key elements of its production. Forty years after its founding, the company combines the craft of glassblowing with contemporary design.

• Venezia: chandeliers and wall lamps with a fringe of small rods and tiny beads, made from glass paste moulded in the historic glass factories of Murano.
• Aphrodite: designed by Giovanni Luca Ferreri and inspired by the drapery of the statue of Aphrodite in the Altes Museum, Berlin, made with the Venetian conteria bead technique.
• Nebula: chandeliers and wall lamps, also by Giovanni Luca Ferreri, whose glass casts reflections on ceilings and walls when lit.
