Cristalleria Fratelli Betti Glass Identification Guide + Gallery
Back to Glass Encyclopedia Home
Cristalleria Fratelli Betti was founded in the Italian region of Empoli, in 1954, by three brothers, Daniel, Loris and Josè Betti, when they took over an existing factory run by the Mori family, named Vetreria Rioda. In the early 1970's, the glassworks was bought by the factory workers, and production continued until the company closed in 1982.
Update: A recent post in a Murano Facebook group of a 1970's catalogue from the Vetreria Artistica Sanminiatello (V.A.S.) factory, has revealed that Cristalleria Fratelli Betti was not the only Empoli factory that made cased designs such as the ones shown below. We will soon update this page with a close study of patterns and shapes, to hopefully discover the differences.
