Description

"Sometimes, all it takes is a few colorful glasses to completely change the mood at the table. Murano glass catches the light and the glimmer of sunshine, bringing the colors to life and turning even the simplest table setting into a little Venetian celebration. Because every home deserves a touch of dolce vita!"

The Twist Set by NasonMoretti is an exclusive glassware set featuring 4 glasses for water and wine and 1 matching carafe, entirely handcrafted from authentic Murano glass.

Designed by Matteo Zorzenoni, the Twist collection offers a contemporary interpretation of historic Filigrana Veneziana: slender rods of colored glass are incorporated into the glass during the making process, following the form in an elegant spiral movement.

The result is a light, luminous, and instantly recognizable set in which color and transparency continually shift with the light. Each piece is handcrafted in Murano and features subtle variations that make it unique.

Why Is the Twist Set So Special?

Filigree is one of the most fascinating techniques in the Venetian glassmaking tradition. During the process, extremely thin rods of colored glass are incorporated into the still-hot glass and then shaped through the movement and rotation of the glass itself.

In the Twistcollection, filigree becomes an integral part of the design: the colored lines appear to wrap around the glass, creating an elegant sense of movement.

The technique demands exceptional precision, as the master glassmaker must simultaneously control the temperature, blowing, form, and direction of the decorative lines. For this very reason, subtle variations from one piece to another are not imperfections, but evidence of authentic handcraftsmanship.

The Heritage of NasonMoretti Glassmaking

Founded in Murano in 1923, NasonMoretti is one of Venice’s historic glassmakers, renowned for its exploration of color and its ability to bring traditional Murano techniques into dialogue with contemporary design.

The Twist collection, designed by Matteo Zorzenoni, perfectly expresses this philosophy: a historic technique such as filigree is transformed into a clean, modern graphic element that fits effortlessly into contemporary interiors.

Set Composition

The set includes:

• 4 Twist Water & Wine Glasses — H 10 × Ø 8 cm;
• 1 Twist Carafe — H 28 × Ø 13 cm.

Total composition: 5 pieces.

The glasses are ideal for water, wine, juices, aperitifs, and non-alcoholic cocktails. The carafe completes the table setting and, when not in use, can also be displayed as an elegant decorative object.

The Twist service is available in the following variants:

• Red Filigrana;
• Yellow Filigrana;
• Orange Filigrana;
• Light Blue Filigrana;

Choose the carafe and glasses in the same color for a refined, harmonious table setting, or mix different shades to bring more color and personality to the table. Colorful glasses are also wonderfully practical when you're entertaining — everyone can easily recognize their own glass, so there’s no confusing it with someone else’s.

Twist in the Table Setting

The transparency of the glass allows the colored filigree to take center stage without visually overwhelming the table.

The set pairs particularly well with:

• white or ivory porcelain;
• handcrafted ceramics;
• white, ecru and natural linen;
• satin steel or silver cutlery;
• Calacatta marble;
• travertine;
• natural oak;

Blue, Light Blue, and Green filigree are particularly well suited to Mediterranean and contemporary settings; Red, Orange, and Yellow introduce warmer accents; White and Black complement minimalist and graphic table settings.
