150px|right|thumb|According to family tradition, Marsilio Zorzi adopted this design as the Zorzi coat of arms after the reconquest of [[Curzola in 1256]]

The Zorzi or Giorgi was a noble family of Venetian origin. They thrived in the Late Middle Ages, especially in the remnants of the Latin Empire in Greece, where they controlled the Margraviate of Bodonitsa and through marriage the Duchy of Athens until the Ottoman conquest.
