For over forty years, Formia has been synonymous with Murano art glass and a guarantee of fine workmanship.

Born in 1962 out of the committed work and long-standing experience of two master glassmakers, Formentello and Mian, along the years Formia has attracted many other master glassmakers, and now numbers ten teams, headed by the masters helped by sixty skilled assistants.

Passion, creativity, and accuracy in all details, are Formia’s winning points, from the starting ideas and projects drafted by qualified designers, to the realization of the single glass pieces, blown and crafted in full respect of the secrets of a thousand-year- long tradition.

Each element is produced with great care and love, no matter how small and simple the object.
The same attention is given to large glass sculptures, artworks, complete and exclusive glassware lines that Formia offers to the collectors, connoisseurs, and retailers throughout the world that feel and admire the beauty and elegance of Murano art glass.
