AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Three-light chandelier, entirely handmade by a Murano master glassmaker, a true classic of Murano glass, with decorations in gold leaf.

All the pieces are similar, but not identical, due to the completely artisanal workmanship.

Beautifully luminous in different lighting conditions, see all the photos. It illuminated the entrance of a Venice apartment, now under restoration. The previous owner recalls they were purchased at Fornace a Murano, but purchase documents were not kept given the era.

It can be suitable for many environments and styles, and photos of various ambient insertions are provided as examples.

Transparent glass with gold leaf decorations, very bright and evocative.

It has 3 arms with cups facing upward, with 3 small leaves between them; 3 tall flowers in the center interleaved with 3 tall leaves.

Width: 68 cm Height: 72 cm, approx.

Complete with all pieces. Note a chip in the glass of one cup (final photos).
An replacement cup is also provided, but it too has a small chip on the rim.

Electrical system is functional. Sockets for E14 bulbs. The chandelier has only been dusted to preserve its light patina of time, but it can be washed before mounting if desired.

It will be shipped disassembled, with assembly instructions, for safer transport.

Shipping only to continental EU countries, excluding islands.

Seller's Story

I mainly collect Murano chandeliers thanks to the collaboration with some companies that restore apartments and palaces in Venice. In this way, over time, I have recovered the chandeliers of elegant and often ancient houses in the lagoon and in the nearby areas. Murano glass has an incomparable charm: every piece, even the simplest, has a story hidden in its fragility and its iridescent light.
