AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rara Table Lamp Mid-Century in Murano Glass, Two-Tone and Brass – 1970s

A refined and rare example of Italian art lighting from the Mid-Century period. This table lamp perfectly embodies the elegance of the 1970s, blending the centuries-old craftsmanship of Murano glass masters with a minimalist, geometric metal frame.

The lampshade, the centerpiece of the work, features a sleek, elongated drop or bottle-shaped form. Made in precious two-tone beveled glass, it is divided vertically in an asymmetric way: one half glows in a vibrant coral/orange red, while the other is in opalescent milk-white glass. A striking dark transition line, integrated into the glass itself, clearly separates the two chromatic souls, a detail that attests to the high complexity of the artisanal workmanship.

The diffuser is elegantly suspended from a slender yet sturdy brushed satin brass bridge-like structure, ending on a solid circular brushed base.

Light Effect and Aesthetics
When lit, the lamp offers an extraordinary visual impact: the white side diffuses light softly and evenly, while the orange section warms up, creating a suggestive and exclusive atmosphere. A highly charming piece of mid-century modern design, perfect for collectors or to enhance design interiors, elegant offices, or period living rooms.

Technical details:

- Type: Table lamp / Bedside lamp / Ambient light
- Country of production: Italy
- Period: Around 1970 (Mid-Century Modern)
- Materials: Murano artistic glass (two-tone beveling), Satin/ brushed brass frame
- Lamp base/fitment: E14
- Condition: Excellent overall era-appropriate aesthetic condition. The glass is intact, without chips, cracks, or threads. The brass shows a beautiful light natural patina that authenticates its age. Original and functioning electrical system, equipped with a black cord and inline switch (it is still recommended to verify conformity with the standards of one’s country before final use).

The piece will be professionally and securely packaged to guarantee the Murano glass’s absolute integrity during shipping. Tracked and insured delivery.
