Art Glass Lighting & Murano Auction

Table lamp in Murano glass. Made of milky white opal blown glass, it is characterized by a refined double-volume structure, with an inner form enclosed by a broader outer shell. This dialogue between the two elements creates visual depth and a light diffusion that is particularly soft and uniform.
When lit, the lamp takes on the appearance of a suspended luminous mass that evokes a stylized atomic cloud, with the inner core seemingly feeding the expansion of the outer volume. The perforated base, from which a corona of small luminous points filters, further enhances the effect of irradiated energy. An iconic object of Murano design from the seventies, capable of uniting formal elegance with strong scenographic suggestion.

Lampada da tavolo in vetro di Murano. Realizzata in vetro soffiato bianco lattimo caratterizzata da una raffinata struttura a doppio volume, con una forma interna racchiusa da un più ampio involucro esterno. Questo dialogo tra i due elementi genera profondità visiva e una diffusione della luce particolarmente morbida e uniforme.
Accesa, la lampada assume l'aspetto di una massa luminosa sospesa che richiama una nube atomica stilizzata, con il nucleo interno che sembra alimentare l'espansione del volume esterno. La base traforata, da cui filtra una corona di piccoli punti luminosi, accentua ulteriormente l'effetto di energia irradiata. Un oggetto iconico del design muranese degli anni Settanta, capace di unire eleganza formale e forte suggestione scenografica.
