Barovier&Toso is considered the oldest glassmaking company still working in the world: the Barovier family is documented on Murano from 1324, and Angelo Barovier invented clear 'cristallo' glass in the 1400s. Its palazzo on the Fondamenta Manin houses the company's showroom and a gallery using Murano glass for contemporary art.
