LINO TAGLIAPIETRA was born in 1934 in Murano, Italy, and became an apprentice glassblower at the age of 11. Even at a young age, Lino displayed immense skill with glass and was awarded the title of 'Maestro' when he was just 21. In 1979, Lino visited Seattle for the first time and introduced students from the Pilchuck School to the traditions of Venetian glassblowing. This intercultural collaboration helped shape the identity of American glass and offered Lino the opportunity to expand his horizons internationally. Now in his eighties, with over 70 years of experience, the Maestro divides his time between Murano and Seattle. He continues to exercise his prodigious technical skill and creative experimentation, producing works that inspire and astonish.

Seller's Story

I am an architect, and I have dedicated years to interior design and lighting design in my architecture studio. Subsequently, I further developed my great passions and knowledge for lighting, design, and the art of Murano glass. So, I founded MIMU interior, based in northern Italy, between Milan, the capital of design, and Venice, the capital of glass art. We aim to present, in a contemporary way, the ancient techniques of Murano glass art by creating limited and exclusive glass lamp productions that can illuminate and create captivating and personal atmospheres. Additionally, we select and offer timeless lamps, furnishings, and objects from the past, with a particular focus on Murano glass lamps. Our production of Murano lamps. We have our lamps crafted by expert Venetian master glassmakers, preserving the ancient techniques of Murano blown glass. Each piece of glass is unique and stunning, with slight variations from one to another because they are mouth-blown and handcrafted. Our policy It is essential for us to have a trusting relationship with our customer friends, offering excellent pre- and post-sales service based on principles of fairness, seriousness, and sustainable consumption.
