About the Item
A rare and sculptural piece of Italian glass artistry, this extra large “Chiclos” vase was designed by Renato Toso for Leucos in the 1970s. A striking example of postmodern Murano glass design, the vase stands out with its bold scale, rich coloration, and fluid organic form.
Hand-blown in Murano, the “Chiclos” vase features a translucent glass body with dramatic curves and a subtly architectural profile. Its oversized proportions make it as much a sculptural object as a vessel—ideal as a standalone centerpiece or part of a curated collection of mid-century and Italian decorative arts.
Renato Toso, a pioneering figure in Italian design, brought a distinct vision to Leucos during this era, merging traditional Venetian craftsmanship with avant-garde design principles. This piece exemplifies that fusion with elegance and power.

Renato Toso
Italian designer and architect Renato Toso creates beautiful mid-century modern and modern pendant lights and sconces out of creamy Murano glass. His designs have a chic retro appeal characterized by soft curves and effortless elegance. He is part of the design firm Toso, Massari & Associates, which he founded with his wife, designer Giovanna Noti Massari.
Toso was born in 1940 in Murano, Italy. Murano is a Venetian island with a long glassmaking tradition. Both Toso and Massari studied architecture in Venice and founded Toso, Massari & Associati in 1966. The studio specializes in architecture and lighting design for interior and industrial spaces.
Toso, Massari & Associati has partnered with numerous companies over the years, including lighting company Leucos, which Toso and Massari participated in founding. The studio has designed collections for historic lighting manufacturer Vistosi, one of Murano’s most prominent glassmakers. In 2007, Toso, Massari & Associati created a series of modular lamps called Ecos for the company. This series was followed up in 2013 by the Noon lamp collection, based on the moon’s phases.
The studio has won first place in several design competitions and shows, including the Venice Biennale, the Milan Triennial XII and the National Design Competition in Trieste. Its work has been exhibited at the Louvre in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Palazzo Grassi in Venice.
Today, Toso and Massari’s children — Anna, Marco, Pio and Tito —are all part of Toso, Massari & Associati.
