Description

This is a vintage Murano glass chandelier crafted in the style of the ‘Ca’Rezzonico’ chandeliers, first created by Giuseppe Briati in the 18th century. This modern reinterpretation of the ‘Ca’Rezzonico’ style, named after the Venetian palace where Briati’s masterpiece resides.

This handcrafted gold-infused cristallo Murano chandelier has five scroll arms with tri-lobed cups, utilizing a rigaree trim. Featuring a bulbous center column with blooming details, stylized here with daffodils and leaves. The body and arms of this piece are made of clear, colorless Venetian glass enhanced with 24-carat gold leaf. The subtle glints of gold dispersed throughout mimic the look of sunbeams when lit. Otherwise, the translucent crystalline glass blends with any color palette.

This piece demonstrates a delicate Baroque-style design still loved by many, resulting in a shimmering floral centerpiece. The golden cristallo glass enchants the illusion of sunlight, elevating any interior with a touch of natural beauty.

Dimensions without ceiling cover and chain: H=20 in. W=26 in. D=26 in. 15 lbs.
