The Ways of Glass - Expert tours of museums, Boschi Di Stefano House Museum

Event organised by Comitato Nazionale Italiano AIHV – Association Internationale pour l’Histoire du Verre
The eleven exhibition spaces of the Boschi Di Stefano House-Museum are home to about three hundred of the more than two thousand works collected by Antonio and Marieda Boschi Di Stefano, displayed to the public according to the will of engineer Antonio Boschi.
Despite the impossibility of maintaining and fully reconstituting the furnishings, many design pieces have been recovered or integrated. Among them, noteworthy are the chandeliers, some of which were made by Murano glassmakers of the 1920s and 1930s (Cappellin; Venini & C; Zecchin; Martinuzzi vetri artistici) to designs by Carlo Scarpa, Napoleone Martinuzzi, etc. Or like "Agena," from the Galassia collection, produced by Venini in 1993 and designed by Alessandro Mendini.
