Description

Started 40 years ago on the island of Murano, La Murrina represents the perfect marriage of traditional and contemporary. The lighting and design company’s glassblowing masters combine bold, innovative designs with time-honored Venician techniques, helping them appeal to those in both the classic and cutting-edge camps. Indeed, La Murrina’s flexibility and striking designs have attracted some of most renowned designers in the world. No less a modernist than Philippe Starck used this black Veneziano chandelier in his YooD4 residential building in Boston. In addition to their fine artistry, La Murrina custom-sizes each piece.
