‘The experience of being at Murano can only be likened possibly to the experience of the composer hearing their music being interpreted for the first time. To have the opportunity to break out from our usual approach to design with all its constraints when involved with mass production and to be able to focus on the hands skills of craftsmen and the material itself was truly liberating. Working with the Master craftsman at Salviati was the most exciting collaboration imaginable.

'Muso' is the term used in connection with the Buddhist idea of unchanging formlessness behind all phenomena.There are two types of pieces in our collection. The ones that use Zanfirico are called Sviluppo and the others using Filigrana are called Ripple.

We took a long and hard look at the traditional Murano techniques of Zanfirico and optic blown Filigrana, and used these to express the fluidity, weight and volume of our asymmetrical forms, working away from applied decoration to an integrated solution between tradition, craft, material and modernity.
