AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A splendid and elegant coordinated pair of vintage table lamps, in full Space Age / Mid-Century Modern style, dating from the 1970s and of refined Italian craftsmanship (attributed to the production of F. Fabbian / La Murrina).
The dome-shaped shade is entirely crafted in fine Murano art glass, handworked with the complex 'pulegoso glass' technique. Inside the glass melt, countless micro-bubbles of air with sparkling gold inclusions are trapped, capable of creating a warm atmospheric effect and a suggestive diffusion of light when the lamps are lit.
The shades rest on elegant circular bases in polished/gilded brass. The electrical installations are fully original to the period and fully functional, equipped with the characteristic flat black cables and the famous white rectangular pass-through switches with knurled red button (typical of the 1970s).
The objects are presented in excellent vintage condition. The glasses are completely intact, free of furrows, cracks, or chips. The brass bases show only slight, charming signs of aging that attest to their authenticity.
