AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
3-light chandelier, entirely handmade by a master Murano glassmaker, with transparent glass and rich inclusions in pure gold. Equipped with a beautiful Venetian wrought-iron hook, for chandeliers.
All pieces are similar, but not identical, given the fully artisanal craftsmanship.
Bright and luminous in various lighting conditions, see all the photos. It illuminated the living room of an apartment in Venice, now under restoration. The previous owner recalls that they were purchased at the Fornace in Murano, but due to the era the purchase documents were not kept.
It may be suitable for different placements: as an example, some images with possible installation solutions are provided.
Complete and in good condition: small flaw on the sphere (one small petal missing) but practically invisible when mounted (see last photo).
Dating: ca. 1980/1990.
Height 70 cm; with hook 82 cm. Diameter about 63 cm.
3 arms with floral cups, alternating with 3 low twisted flowers. In the center 3 tall flowers alternating with 3 shorter ones; all pieces with rich gold inclusions. From each arm hangs a garland with a small flower pendant.
Complete with all pieces.
Electrical system functioning. Sockets for E14 bulbs. The chandelier has only been dusted to preserve its light patina of time, but it could be washed before assembly if desired.
Will be shipped disassembled, with assembly instructions for safer transport. Last photo shows the detail of assembly.
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.
