Barovier&Toso is the most ancient glass company in the world, established in 1295 in the island of Murano (Venice, Italy) where it is still based, devoted to maintaining and innovate the blown glass tradition. Barovier&Toso creates lighting products and decorative objects in Venetian Crystal. Real works of art, unique masterpieces for the quality of their manufacturing, technology, tradition and creativity. The company mission is to offer decorative elements that give emotions, transit positive feeling and create very special atmospheres. The creations of Barovier&Toso are one-of-a-kind works in Venetian mouth blown crystal and handcrafted by master artisans in Murano, custodians of an age-old tradition passed down across the generations. Angelo Barovier invented a revolutionary formula that made it possible to obtain an unprecedented material with extraordinary characteristics of extreme transparency and brightness. 1455, Angelo Barovier was granted the exclusive right to produce “Cristallo Veneziano” (Venetian Crystal). The factor that makes this formula unique, still used today through progressive refinements, is the total absence of lead and arsenic. This is what makes our Venetian Crystal different from any other crystal on the market, enabling the master artisans to carry out the entire production process in complete safety, achieving exceptional results. The Venetian Crystal is a unique, sustainable and safe material, ideal to give form to works of great artistic value: the creations of Barovier&Toso. The Company is a top producer, as for range extensions, quality, innovation and customer support in designing customized lighting fixtures and installations.
