Founded in 1854 by six brothers united by a deep passion for the art of glassmaking, Fratelli Toso holds the prestigious title of being one of the oldest and most esteemed glass factories on the island of Murano.
With a history spanning over 150 years, the Toso family has continuously refined their techniques, earning numerous accolades and establishing themselves as true pioneers of Venetian glass. While their historic output encompasses a diverse range of creations - from magnificent, elaborate chandeliers to delightful decorative souvenirs - they are perhaps most legendary in the vintage community for their absolute mastery of millefiori (thousand flowers) and intricate murrine work.
