AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare and imposing pair of wall lamps (appliques) of large size, produced by the prestigious Murano glassworks Mazzega in the 1970s. This lot stands out for its generous format and the extraordinary quality of the glass, typical of the most luxurious commissions of the era.

Artistic Details:
Sculpted Glass: Each applique is composed of hand-blown Murano glass elements in a warm and intense amber color. The work features a wavy, organic surface (often described as "ice" or "mottled"), which fragments the light, creating scenographic effects on the walls.

"Large" Format: Unlike standard models, these appliques boast significant dimensions that make them suitable for large living rooms, reception halls, or sophisticated interior design projects.

Mounting: The supporting frame is original metal, designed to securely support the weight of the artistic glass and allow optimal light diffusion.

Conditions:
The wall lamps are in excellent vintage condition.

Glass:
Intact, free of cracks or chips. The transparency and amber color are vivid and bright.

Structure:
Solid, with slight signs of aging consistent with the item’s age that attest to its originality.

Operation:
Electrical system present (a technical check before wall mounting is always recommended).

Shipping
Shipping at the buyer’s expense, with costs to be established based on destination where no trusted courier is available.

The items will be carefully packed and will be ready for pickup by the courier.
