The glassworks Vetreria Artistica Busato was founded in 1994 by Master Gino Busato. It born into the Busato family tradition: the Master Marco Busato got the glass blowing experience from his father, Gino Busato, glass master for more than sixty years in Murano. 

Gino, joining the Murano furnaces when he was very young, learnt the glass-blowing art from one of the most important Venice masters: the Master Emilio Nason (*). Then he worked for A.V.E.M. (Arte Vetraria Muranese), founded by Antonio and Egidio Ferro, Giulio Radi and Emilio Nason.

At the beginning of its activity, the Vetreria Artistica Busato was situated in Murano island, the motherland of the blown glass; then it has been moved near the Marco Polo Airport (Venice). The Master Gino Busato handed on his passion for glassblowing to his sons, Marco and Michela, and to the partner Adriano. Marco, Michela e Adriano carry on the activity all together.
