About

--  FACTORY --

We are in Venice, on the Murano islandEvery morning the twenty craftsmen of our furnace gather in front of the incandescent mouths of the ovens and plan the day’s production. The masters in the 4 work squares draw on stone blackboards the chandeliers they will give life to during an intense day of toil. In the meantime, our planners together with the designers trace the lines of the lighting collections that make our production unique and exclusive.


The PIUMATI brand owes its name to a historical type of Murano glass processing of the 17th century obtained by applying hot glass threads of another color around a blown glass that, combed up and down, take on a feather pattern, from which derives the name of “piumati”, that means “feathered”.


-- GLASS MASTERS --

“Maestro” is the title recognized to the best Murano glass artisans who have distinguished themselves for their ability and innovation.

In our company there are four Masters coordinated by Marco Seguso, an eighth generation Maestro. Seguso is one of the oldest families on the island of Murano. Devoted to the art of Venetian glass since 1300, it has established itself for the creation of artistic masterpieces and bespoke furnishings.


Over the centuries, the Seguso masters have created their works for royal families and entrepreneurial dynasties from all over the world. In 1605 the name Seguso was inscribed in the Golden Book of Murano, the register where the families of Murano glassmakers were raised to the rank of nobles.  In 1792 the Republic of Venice minted a coin with the name of the Segusos. It was the famous “Osella”, which was given by the Doge to patrician families since 1521.


-- MURANO ISLAND --

Murano is a small island of Venice that overlooks the lagoon. Dense with Renaissance houses and a characteristic white lighthouse, glass works appreciated throughout the world have been produced here since the 13th century. The island was chosen by the Dodge of Venice in the 14th century as the only place where glass could be worked in furnaces at 1400 degrees, in order to avoid the risk of devastating fires in the city.


Given the importance that this activity had for the wealth of Venice, the glassmakers were allowed to carry a sword, but not allowed to leave the city in order not to disclose the secrets of this noble art.  Murano glassmakers were often raised to the rank of nobles and their name was inscribed in the Golden Book, the register where the noble families of Venice were registered.


-- MURANO GLASS --

For centuries, Murano glass has been the most famous glass in the world and one of the most desired Made in Italy products for furnishing luxury environments. Since the dawn of time, Murano glass chandeliers and furnishing objects have decorated the most prestigious homes and have given an unmistakable light to any room.


The works are entirely handmade by master glassmakers according to ancient and secret traditions handed down from father to son for centuries.  Each creation in Murano glass is always unique and unrepeatable, the result of artisan tradition and advanced industrial techniques. For this reason its origin is certified by the Trademark of the Italian law “Vetro Artistico® Murano”.
