Back to Glass Encyclopedia Home

Galliano Ferro formed his own glass factory in 1955 after leaving Arte Vetraria Muranese, or AVEM (A.Ve.M.), which he co-founded in 1932. Designers at Galliano Ferro include his son Giorgio Ferro, Ezio Rizzetto, Fulvio Bianconi and Vinicio Vianello. Giorgio Ferro became head of the company in 1972. British importers Jaffe Rose are known to have imported some of their work, applying their own "Jaffe Rose, Murano Glass" import labels.
