Fulvio Bianconi at Venini | The Roger Thomas Collection

Bianconi, maestro of Murano

In Art and history, Collecting by Roger Thomas

Fulvio Bianconi was an important Maestro of Murano glassmaking famous for his modern silhouettes and mosaics of color. Many of these favorites in this just-closed survey of his career with Venini Murano were created in the 1950’s and 60’s, the years of my youth. Several I remember from my parents’ home.

You can learn more about his work on his official website.
