The Italian Seguso family is one of the most esteemed, historical and respected glass manufacturing families originating from the island of Murano, Italy.

In 1954, Mario Seguso, a descendant and at the time still living in Italy, was invited to work in Brazil at the Cristais Prado studio, a renowned glass engraving company. Mario, being enchanted by the South American country, decided to stay to produce glassware following his family’s glass making tradition for the Brazilian market. He founded a glass art studio in Poços de Caldas and named it Cá d’Oro, which can be translated into golden house.
