Description

For centuries, Murano chandeliers have captivated designers, celebrities, and discerning homeowners. Each chandelier is handcrafted through intricate glassblowing techniques and the skilled blending of mineral oxides, creating the soft, distinctive colors of Murano glass.

This exquisite five-arm chandelier features ribbed arms that flow into undulating bobeches, and a basin bowl adorned with curling fluted scrolls, reminiscent of a bubbling champagne fountain. The crown and finial are meticulously finished to enhance the sparkling effect of light, mimicking water’s reflective surface.

Although originally equipped with discreet hooks on the arms for decorative hangings, these were absent when we acquired the chandelier. We have come to appreciate its streamlined elegance and believe it adds a refined touch as is. As a matter of fact, this chandelier was the inspiration for our company logo. This chandelier is more than just a lighting fixture; it’s a cornerstone of our brand’s identity and history. Owning it means owning a part of our story.

Crafted from hand-blown and molded glass, each component of this chandelier is unique, with natural imperfections that add to its character. We encourage reviewing all provided images, including close-ups to understand these details.

Arms: The chandelier was originally designed with discreet hooks on the arms for decorative hangings, which are no longer present. Two arms exhibit flea-bite chips at these hook locations. Additionally, one arm has been fitted with a different metal cap at its base following gesso restoration to ensure stability (refer to the provided image).

Bobeches: All five bobeches display flea-bite chips on their inner rims. One bobeche also features a crack extending from the external to the internal rim (refer to the provided image).

Bowl: The bottom bowl shows chips along its inner rim where it contacts the finial (refer to provided image).

Due to its delicate nature, this fixture requires special handling and shipping. It will be disassembled for transport and must be handled by an experienced white glove service that specializes in the careful dismantling, packaging, and reassembly of such items upon installation.

Dimensions (without ceiling cover and chain): Height = 25 in., Width = 25 in., Depth = 25 in., Weight = 16 lbs.
