Presented during a recent exposition regarding the origins of the artworks of Siena, where the glass window was also on show to the public, the book was realised by one of Italy's renowned crystal producers, Calp. The same company has directed its work to the future, innovating and updating crystal to satisfy today's lifestyle with personalised but practical objects for the home and table.
