Description

This mid-century Murano glass chandelier has four tiers of discs mounted on a brass frame with an acanthus leaf detail. The discs are individually handblown elements, with the tiers alternating in color between amber and cristallo glass spotted with white pigment. The spots are created by rolling the molten glass in a cluster of white glass pieces before hand-blowing each piece. As each glass form is shaped, the white glass stretches and softens in appearance. This chandelier style is modeled after pieces by Italian designer Gino Vistosi for Venini.

This chandelier is a piece of timeless beauty crafted with meticulous care in the Murano tradition. The orange hues from the amber and brass allure a warm and welcoming ambiance. This fixture adds a touch of retro charm and classic allure to your space, making it the perfect centerpiece to create an inviting atmosphere.

Dimensions without ceiling cover and chain: H=22 in. W=15 in. D=15 in. 15 lbs.

There is wear on the brass frame due to age. Glassblown, no part is perfect or identical. There might be natural imperfections. Some discs have air bubbles from the making. Two of the discs have flea-bit chips but unnoticeable once placed on the frame (see the images). The discs have rubber thumps to protect them from screws. Please see all the images, especially the close-ups.

Parts are disassembled and require assembly. This fixture will require special handling and shipping by an experienced white glove service experienced in dismantling, packaging, and reassembling upon installation. To ship, it is dissembled.
