Murano’s centuries-old glassmaking tradition is well represented by the works of Micheluzzi<\/strong>, Carlo Moretti<\/strong>, NasonMoretti<\/strong> and Salviati<\/strong>, or by Attombri<\/strong>‘s vases inspired by Japanese natural elements, as well as Barbini Specchi Veneziani<\/strong>‘s mirrors decorated with japoniserie; finally, the fascinating and poetic art of Japanese paper boxes and origami by Stefania Giannici of Paperoowl<\/strong>, together with the evocative iconography of Fallani Venezia<\/strong>‘s art prints.

The culture of the product, the drive for innovation, the constant search for quality in the territory come out of the companies and contaminate the markets. Tangible proof of this are the precious pieces that we have chosen to exhibit on this occasion at the Splendid Venice, which has always been a place dedicated to welcoming and enhancing local art and craftsmanship<\/em>” said Salvatore Pisani.
