Vistosi
Vistosi makes lighting in blown glass, and many of its collections name the old Venetian technique behind them: rigadin stripes, balloton texture, murrine patterns. The company traces its glassmaking in Murano to 1585. We carry the full Vistosi lighting range, and you can see a Jube table lamp in our Ottawa showroom.

Four centuries of glass
Vistosi traces its story to 1585, when a Gazzabin appears in the Murano glass registers; “Vistosi” began as a family nickname. In 1945 Guglielmo Vistosi opened a new furnace in Murano, and after the war Gino and Luciano Vistosi turned it to lighting, working with designers such as Gae Aulenti, Angelo Mangiarotti, Ettore Sottsass and Vico Magistretti. Mangiarotti’s Giogali, from 1967, is still in the range: a system of interlocking crystal hooks that Vistosi lists as its best seller.
Old techniques, named
Many of Vistosi’s collection pages name the glassmaking technique a piece uses, and the names are useful when you’re describing a fixture to a client. Novecento, Oto and Jeff use rigadin, stripes in the glass; Novecento’s radiate like the arms of a candlestick. Armonia combines rigadin with balloton, and the surface of Rina is textured with murrine.
Colour you need to see in person
Glass colour is hard to judge from a photograph. Jube comes in smoky, burnt earth, old green, crystal or amethyst glass, and Tread shares two of Jube’s glasses, burnt earth and old green. We have a Jube table lamp in burnt earth glass on a matt gold frame in our Ottawa showroom, so you can see a tinted glass lit. Vistosi was part of the showroom’s grand opening in June 2025, and its announcement calls Flux a long-standing partner.
