Description

This handcrafted, gold-infused Cristallo Murano floral chandelier features four scroll arms holding bobeches with leaf trim. The chandelier boasts a bulbous center column adorned with blooming details, stylized with daffodils and leaves. Intricate scroll stems and rigaree trim further enhance its textured appearance, reflecting masterful craftsmanship.

The glass houses on the island of Murano are renowned for their highly ornamented glass chandeliers made of blown glass with intricate details. This elegant chandelier showcases the mastery of Murano glass craftsmanship. A 1960s reinterpretation of Giuseppe Briati’s 18th-century ‘Ca’Rezzonico’ style, this chandelier embodies a refined elegance. The body and arms are crafted from clear, colorless glass enhanced with 24-karat gold leaf. Subtle glints of gold on the trims and details create a sunbeam-like effect when illuminated, seamlessly blending with any color scheme.

This piece exemplifies a delicate Baroque-style design beloved for its shimmering floral motif, creating a captivating centerpiece. The golden cristallo glass evokes the illusion of sunlight, adding a touch of natural beauty to any space.
