Archimede Seguso redefined a 650-year family history of Murano glass-making with brilliance and novel techniques, elevating him to an exemplar for the maestros of his time as well as for future generations of glassmakers. This next generation included his sons and grandsons, who carried on and further expanded the family legacy of Venetian art glass. The survival and revival of traditional glassblowing combined with unique design are the legacies left behind by a master. (1stDibs website).

In the 1960s Coco Chanel commissioned the Venetian glass artist, Achimede Seguso to make a range of hand made glass Chanel jewelry to accompany her couture line.
