From the moment it was founded in 1925, Nason Moretti has been a groundbreaker in the world of glassmaking. Based in Murano, Italy, the company was among the first to tap into Murano's centuries-old artisanal traditions to create avant-garde designs. Its innovative two-toned glassware earned the company the prestigious Compasso d’Oro prize in the 1950s, and its pieces—which include stemware, vases, candlesticks, and decorative items—have been acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Nason Moretti continues to produce iconic pieces from its past (including 1920s lamp designs by its founder, Umberto Nason), while boldly experimenting with new shapes, colors, and techniques.
