About Roberto Beltrami
Roberto started his career in glass in his late teens working with some of the best Murano glassmakers, including Pino Signoretto, Oscar Zanetti and Paolo Crepax. He also assisted Maestro Lino Tagliapietra for a short period in the making of his avventurine miniature series.
Roberto was born near Milan Italy, but moved to the United States when he was 16 and studied theoretical physics at Boston University before approaching the world of glass. In 2015 he became the first and only glass master under 35 chosen to teach students at the Abate Zanetti glass school in Murano, where he was later hired as chief production and glass master.
He opened his own glass factory in Murano in January, 2017 at the age of 25, striving to find innovations in both the artistic and the technical aspects of glass production.
