AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mid-century modern Murano glass chandelier produced in Italy in the 1970s attributed to Gaetano Sciolari. The diffuser is made with the distinctive Murano blown-glass technique with circular fluting that creates particular light refraction effects. The glasswork recalls Splugen Braun, the iconic chrome-plated metal lamp produced by Flos and designed by the Castiglioni brothers in 1961. A few sepia color strokes make it an extraordinary vintage piece. It is mounted with elegance on an elegant lacquered steel base with silver-chrome details, for a sophisticated and striking addition to any room. The dimensions are notable: diameter 50 cm, height 80 cm. The condition is excellent: the glass shows no defects. Slight traces of oxidation are present on the metal parts, as shown in the photos. Happy bidding. The shipping costs include appropriate packaging for safe transport.
