AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptional and rare pendant lamp model "Tinta", designed in 1971 by the renowned designers Renato Toso and Noti Massari for the historic Italian glassworks Leucos.

A true masterpiece of Space Age design and Murano craftsmanship. The lamp is characterized by an imposing, thick hand-blown Murano glass dome. The upper part, in elegant and opaque glossy black glass, gradually fades downwards transforming into a spectacular mosaic of large multicolored glass tesserae (large murrine). When lit, the lower band creates a breathtaking play of light and color, typical of Leucos’ best productions from the 1970s.

The object is presented in excellent vintage condition, with no chips, cracks, or breaks.
There is a striking and natural air bubble embedded within the thick layer of transparent glass mass (visible in the detail photos). This should not be considered a defect, but rather intrinsic to and the ultimate guarantee of the authentic mouth-blown glass and the piece’s artisanal craftsmanship, which makes it unique.

Original wiring from the period, featuring the typical spiral "telephone" cable, consistent with the production era. A professional check of the electrical system is always recommended to adapt it to modern standards.

Impressive dimensions and substantial weight (approximately 7 kg of solid glass). A museological collectible piece, ideal for enriching environments with refined design.

Packing will be done with the utmost care, tailor-made and with professional materials to guarantee the glass’s total safety during transport. Tracked and insured shipping.
