About the Item
This exquisite vintage table lamp is a testament to the brilliant creative synergy of Giovanna Noti Massari and Renato Toso, the celebrated husband-and-wife design duo who were a driving force behind Leucos. The piece perfectly captures their shared vision of blending artisanal heritage with a bold, modern aesthetic, making it a significant work of Italian design.
The lamp’s design is a masterful study in form and material. Its most captivating feature is the dome-shaped shade, expertly hand-blown in vibrant pistachio green Murano glass. This semi-translucent element casts a warm, atmospheric glow, showcasing the unparalleled skill of the Murano maestri. The shade is held aloft by a gracefully arched chrome stem that flows into a substantial, sculptural base. Crafted from thick, clear glass with a textured, ice-like quality, the base provides a sophisticated anchor, creating a harmonious dialogue between the sleek metal, the colored shade, and the transparent foundation.
This piece emerges from a pivotal moment in design history, driven by the unique partnership of its creators. Noti Massari, a talented architect, and Toso, heir to a legendary Murano glassmaking dynasty, combined their distinct expertise to forge a new path for Italian lighting. Together, they were instrumental in the founding of Leucos, a company dedicated to revitalizing traditional craft with contemporary relevance. Their work is defined by this very fusion of architectural sensibility and a deep, material understanding of glass.
For collectors, this lamp represents an opportunity to own a piece of functional sculpture born from one of the great design collaborations of the 20th century. Its firm attribution to the Toso and Massari partnership and its production by Leucos mark it as a genuine piece of design history. Its timeless elegance ensures it transcends trends, making it a versatile focal point. Imagine it casting a serene light on a mid-century credenza, adding an artistic touch to a modern workspace, or serving as a chic bedside companion.

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.
