Murano Glass Today
Some of the Murano's historical glass factories remain well known brands today, amongst them Gabbiani, Venini, Salviati, Barovier & Toso, Pauly, FerroMurano, Berengo Studio, Seguso, Formia International, Simone Cenedese, Alessandro Mandruzzato, and many others. The oldest glass factory is Antica Vetreria Fratelli Toso, founded in 1854.
Today only few factories use the Artistic Glass Murano® trade mark of origin, that certifies products in glass made on the island of Murano, introduced and regulated by Region of Veneto Law no.70 of the 23/12/1994. There are a lot of other producers that use their own name and still produce in Murano original Murano Glass too.
