Seguso Vetri d'Arte manufactures 20th century Murano glass . Founded between 1932 and 1933, it became known in the 1950s. In 1954 the Ruby Blue Vase won the Compasso d'Oro, with Gio Ponti as president of the jury. The glassworks changed management in 1974 but subsequently, when it was managed by Gianluca Seguso, it was reacquired by the Seguso family together with the archive of historical drawings. See less
