A 1960s Murano glass table lamp by Alfredo Barbini in a glorious shade of aqua. The fluted, tapered body of bullicante crystal with gold foil inclusions is newly set on a base of Carrara marble and paired with a lovely, vintage, faceted finial and a new shade. The lamp is completely restored with a three-way socket and new wiring.


ALFREDO BARBINI (1912–2007) was an Italian glass artist and designer primarily known for sculptures rendered in a signature vetro sommerso (submerged) technique, where colors or additional pieces are seamlessly introduced to the larger whole. He was born on the islands of Murano in 1912. Both parents came from prominent glassmaking families. Barbini learned the traditional techniques of glassblowing in his teens as an apprentice at the Cristalleria Franchetti and the S.A.I.A.R. Ferro-Toso; by age 20 he was a recognized Maestro. Briefly employed at a workshop in Milan in 1932, he returned to Murano to work first at the newly formed Zecchin-Martinuzzi firm and then with Seguso Vetri d'Arte. From 1936 to 1944 he was a partner and master glassblower at Societa Anonima Vetri Artistici Murano (aka S.A.V.A.M.).

Following WWII, Barbini collaborated successively with the artists Archimede Seguso and Napoleone Martinuzzi, and then partnered at Vetreria Vistosi, and later with the artist Gino Cenedese. In 1950 he started his own furnace, Vetreria Alfredo Barbini (reorganized in 1983 as Alfredo Barbini SRL). The firm exhibited his work at the Venice Biennales from 1950 to 1961.

Throughout his career, Barbini experimented with glass’s plasticity, creating delicately colored organic and biomorphic objects as well as figurative models and animals. He died in Venice in 2007.


Murano’s reputation as a center for glassmaking began near the end of the 13th century, when fearing fire the Venetian Republic ordered all glassmakers to move their furnaces to its islands.

A must have for any CEO, Entrepreneur, and Product / Project Manager
Format: Hardcover
I'm almost through finishing this book, and I'm already recommending this to so many of my friends. I feel like many companies could probably save fortunes by reading this book instead of hiring consultants from many top tier firms. You could essentially take this book and follow it as a step-by-step tutorial for making any project succeed. For example, Simon discusses in one chapter the 10 steps for a successful strategic project portfolio management process: know what you have, build momentum, define business goals, capture ideas, be transparent, prioritize, use efficient decision making, establish communication frameworks, conduct postmortems, and improve continually. These may sound like no brainers, but you'll be surprised how many people stray from these steps and lose their focus when they're caught in the excitement of developing their ideas. If you're an entrepreneur with or without an MBA, this book will help you strategize and plan the next steps after you've settled on your block buster idea. If you're a CEO or you're managing projects within a company, you'll learn in addition the early stages of generating the perfect balance of ideas and resources for creating a portfolio of projects with the highest chance of success. Amazing book. Learned a ton so far. It's written very well and gets straight to the point. Looking forward to other books by Simon Moore. Keep up the great work.

I had an interview with Simon
Format: Kindle
I didn't get the job, but I did find his book extremely useful. During my interview, I failed to explain a complex financial concept in way that was easy to understand. Simon does not have this problem. The book was easy to follow and motivated me to drive idea generation within the company I currently work for. I would recommend this book to start ups or innovation officers as I have already seen results.

Excellent reference for industry
Format: Hardcover
Brilliant handbook for anyone involved in project management work at any level, but particularly for those with a strategic angle. Quickly dispelled the notion that I've been employing best practice, and pointed me in the right direction about putting together a more effective project selection process. The author clearly has a great deal of working experience of portfolio management, and that means that rather than being a dry text it's a very practical guide. Highly recommended.
