In
1946, after having gained some furnace experience, Gino Cenedese founded
Gino Cenedese & C. joining forces with some Muranese masters, among whom
Alfredo Barbini, whose works were presented at the 1948 Biennale. When
Barbini left the glassworks in the Fifties, it turned to designers such
as Riccardo Licata, Napoleone Matinuzzi, Fulvio Bianconi, and the painter
Luigi Scarpa Croce. Since 1959 Antonio Da Ros has been artistic director
and responsible for refined pictorial sommersi pieces. Between 1965 and
1972, the master Ermanno Nason also worked at Cenedese. In 1973, the year
in which Gino Cenedese died, his son Amelio became the owner of the firm,
which still produces glass in Murano.
