About Cogir Glass - Comiso, Italy

Cogir Glass s.r.l. was born in 1992 in Comiso, through the action of some local businessmen whose pursuit was to increase in value what for centuries had been one of the compelling elements of the local economy and culture: craftsmanship.

Artist at Work, decorated glass products

The city of Comiso has always been the center of the literary and figurative Iblean culture.  It has been active until today thanks to the very important work of the Istituto Statale Arte (National Institute of Art) where pupils from all over Sicily are prepared to become real art-masters.  This is the source from which Cogir Glass draws profusely; it entrusts the planning and working of its products to bona fide collaborators, obtaining its own lines: Vetri Artistici per Arredare (Artistic Glass for Furnishings) & Terre Cotte Mediterranee (Mediterranean Terra Cotta).

In 1998, Cogir Glass, owing to logistic and production requirements, moved its factory and offices into a new and blooming Industrial Area in Chiaramonte.  Artisan at Work - Imported Design Products This has enabled a considerable increase in production, due to the acquisition of new high-powered kilns, but above all to the acquisition of specialized human resources.
