AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Stunning cascading classic ceiling lamp, ideal for anyone seeking an exclusive and sophisticated lighting piece.
This model is inspired by, or directly attributed to, the iconic Murano glass lamps designed by Paolo Venini in Italy during the 1960s and 1970s.
With 6 light points, very large and heavy. It will be a standout piece in any design or decor.
Its gold-plated metal or brass frame features a unique geometric shape cut into lobes (resembling petals), from which multiple transparent blown-glass prisms or tubes hang, following that elegant wavy silhouette. In the center, it has a radial arrangement of 6 lamp holders, ensuring perfect light distribution, suspended by a gold-plated metal or brass frame.
The great highlight of this piece is its unique visual effect: the arrangement of the glass tubes creates a cascading light refraction, generating a bright and sophisticated glow when the lamp is lit.
A true piece, rare and collectible, of vintage design that transforms any space with refinement and elegance.
The pendants will be removed for travel so they reach you in the best condition. It is up to the buyer to put them back into the fittings.
I do not ship outside Europe.
It will be packed with great care and sent with tracking. Don’t worry, I know how to pack this item so it arrives in the best possible condition. The tracking will be updated on your Catawiki purchase page, please check regularly to prevent the package from being returned to me, in which case the buyer will be responsible for the cost of any additional shipment.
