Luxurious mirror straight from Italy - Ongaro & Fuga

We are delighted to present to you the exceptionally designer craftsmanship of Ongaro & Fuga, founded in 1954 by Franco Fuga and his wife Tullia Ongaro. The collaboration of these two highly creative individuals resulted in a distinctive and fresh perspective on art. They proudly emphasize that Ongaro & Fuga embodies a centuries-old tradition, reviving the magic and elegance of Venetian mirrors.

Their talent was inherited by their son Julian, who continues the family traditions. Through collaboration with renowned artists and designers, he creates a bridge to the future. This is a significant nod to family and multi-generational craftsmanship. Julian believes that every cloud or colorful Italian façade reflected in the lagoon waters provides vibrant material for new projects. Many of these majestic mirrors are faithful reproductions of historic pieces. Ongaro & Fuga is part of the Consorzio Promovetro di Murano – an important consortium that is a member of Confartigianato Venezia and Confindustria Venezia. For over twenty years, they have been actively working to enhance the image of artistic glass to preserve and defend the thousand-year-old Murano glassmaking tradition. This is a highly significant initiative that does great good for cultural heritage. Ongaro and Fuga are proud to hold the Promovetro certification for producing their mirrors on Murano.

What does the production process look like?

This is an extraordinary product by its very nature. Its beauty is reflected in the very long work involved—crafted with effort by hands, heart, and soul. That’s why Ongaro & Fuga’s exquisite mirrors command their price. The work invested often exceeds 100 hours and can include thousands of decorative elements. It is true luxury and a testament to how strong European family workshops are. For centuries, artisans have driven the evolution of the premium industry, shaping the final appearance of each piece with their own hands. Everything begins with a sketch on paper. Then, the glass is gradually shaped to fit the design, using very delicate and smooth diamond grinding stones. Step by step, they refine sharp edges and uneven surfaces. From a brilliant idea, a luxurious harmony emerges—combining tradition with modernity! It’s magic—these mirrors, if they wish, will become the focal point of your interior.

If Fuga & Ongaro create your own mirror, all you need to do is tell them what you want, describe your space, and share your vision—it's that simple.
