Barovier&Toso is the world's oldest crystal glass brand, founded in 1295 on the island of Murano in Venice. Barovier&Toso is a unique piece of hand-blown Venetian crystal art created by the masters of Murano, a guardian of ancient traditions handed down from generation to generation.   Angelo Barovier has developed a revolutionary formula to obtain an unprecedented material with extremely high transparency and brightness. By a decree of the Republic of Venice in 1455, Angelo Barovier was granted exclusive rights to produce "Cristallo Veneziano" (Venetian crystal).
