Fabiano Zanchi (Italian, b. 1983) is a third-generation Murano glassblower from Venice, Italy, who began learning the craft at age 14 from his father. Originally trained in the intricate tradition of Ca’ Rezzonico chandeliers, he later expanded into contemporary sculptural forms, blending classical techniques with modern sensibilities.

Zanchi has worked internationally, including in Canada and China, where he refined his style and technical range. As a visiting artist at the Chrysler Museum’s Perry Glass Studio in Norfolk, VA, he shares his expertise through dynamic demonstrations and workshops, bringing the elegance of Murano glass to new audiences.
