ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
La Murrina is a company that dates back to the 1960s in Murano where there was a small furnace managed by a group of glass-worker masters. The company started realising prestigious objects in blown glass created by the owners of the furnace. In 1974, the property of the furnace came under the control of a family from Milan, who already produced items for lighting in glass and metal. Hence, the company started to be managed as a corporation. “La Murrina” trademark was registered all around the world and its collections started to spread worldwide. In 2000, La Murrina had its first collaborations with famous designers and architects who extended the production with their contemporary design collection realised in accordance with old glass blowing techniques.
