AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description: Splendid and elegant large hanging lantern, a perfect example of Italian art craftsmanship from the mid-20th century. This unique piece combines the solidity of the structure in gilded brass with the refinement of six uprights in Murano glass worked in torciglione (cordonato).
The lantern features a harmonious hexagonal shape, enhanced by decorative scroll elements on both the upper cap and the terminal base, giving the object a silhouette that is at once light and majestic. The side panels in transparent glass allow a sharp diffusion of light, while the twisted glass pillars create spectacular prismatic reflections when the lamp is on.
Technical Details & Design:
Materials: solid brass, Murano glass, flat glass.
Style: Neoclassical / Modern Baroque / Mid-Century Italian Design.
Period: Circa 1950–1960.
Origin: Italy (attributed to high-end Venetian or Milanese manufacture).
Dimensions: [Enter Height] cm x [Enter Diameter/Width] cm.
Condition: The object is in excellent vintage condition. The brass retains its original patina with slight signs of aging that attest to its authenticity. All Murano glass components are intact, with no chips or noticeable cracks. The electrical system is present (check whether it functions or if it needs revision before installation).
