For Master Tosi, working with glass was like breathing.
He began at the age of 12 and was also apprenticed to Master Albino Carrara, who, recognising the mastery achieved by his pupil, gave him his corteo, an essential tool for cutting glass: an acknowledgement that Tosi used and jealously guarded like a precious jewel.
Tosi not only mastered all the traditional techniques, but also introduced into the furnaces the technique of external sbruffi, which allows the colour to fade, making it come alive.
His works have been exhibited in various galleries around the world: in Milan (in the Quadrilatero della moda), Chicago and New York. At the Museum of Modern Art in Los Angeles, one of his works can be seen. He was and remains one of the important names that have marked the history of glass in Murano over the last 60 years.
