Ars Cenedese Murano

Gino Cenedese (1907-1973) established his own glass factory after WWII in 1946 with the help of great glass masters: Alfredo Barbini, Gino Fort, Angelo Tosi and Pietro Scaramal. Under his management, the factory soon acquired international renown for its highly prized and exclusive glass, developing greatly and emerging as one of the most qualified of the whole island of Murano.

From 1953 to 1958 the collaboration with sculptor Napoleone Martinuzzi brought to life a series of female figures in solid glass and bas-relief panels that still adorn the firm’s showrooms. Designers such as Fulvio Bianconi, Ermanno Nason and Antonio Da Ros worked for the company between the 60s and the early 70s.
