The company · since 1958

A Tuscan manufactory where sand becomes a dream.

In Capraia Fiorentina, for sixty-five years, man and nature have worked in unison. Mouth-blown. Hand-cut. One piece at a time.

1958 The year it all began

The mastery of crystal, the voice of a home.

Mario Cioni founded his crystal works in 1958, on the outskirts of Florence, in a corner of Tuscany where the art of crystal has ancient roots. From the start, a clear choice: no industrial shortcuts, only mouth-blown and hand-cut crystal.

Sixty-five years later, the manufactory remains the same. The same four elements, the same gestures passed down from master to master. What has changed is the language: from classic crystalware, we have arrived at design, light, and sound. Four brands, a single hand.

Every piece is unique. No exceptions.

  1. 1958 Mario Cioni & C. is born

    Founded in Capraia e Limite. Classic art crystal: vases, bowls, cake stands, decorative objects.

  2. 1990 Opening to international markets

    Capraia crystal begins to furnish homes and projects worldwide. The export vocation is born.

  3. 2010 Tondo Doni and Lucescultura

    Crystal becomes contemporary design and a form that gives body to light. Formal research looks to the present.

  4. Today Crystal Sound and Maison et Objet

    The sound aesthetics of MCCS and a constant presence in Paris. Four brands, exporting to over thirty countries.

The process

Earth, fire, air, and water

The same four elements for sixty years.

Earth

Silica sand and minerals. The raw material of crystal is born from the earth.

Fire

The furnace brings everything to fourteen hundred degrees. Light is born from the heat.

Air

The master's breath gives shape and life to the incandescent mass.

Water

It cools, tempers, and reveals transparency. The reflection of water in the glass.
