Dionysio Miseroni von Lison (1607, Prague – 1661, Prague[1]) was a Bohemian-Italian jeweler, gemcutter, and glass cutter. He was a member of very famous Miseroni family who were important jewelers and gemcutters from Milan: the archive information for the Milanese Miseroni family dates back to the 15th century, when there is traces, in 1453, of Giovanni Francesco or Francesco, son of Gasparo, mentioned in 1460 as a member of the goldsmiths' guild, of which he was appointed consul in 1468 and 1475, and abbas in 1480 and again in 1488.[2]

He succeeded his father and became a gemcutter and Imperial Treasure Warden in the Prague Castle. He moved to Vienna after Ferdinand III died, but returned to Prague. He was buried in the church of Saint Mary Magdalena in Prague-Malá Strana. He was succeeded in his workshop by his son Ferdinand Eusebius Miseroni.[3]
