AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Murano: 2 wall appliques, each with two arms
Made by a Murano master in the 1980s with transparent glass.

Very rich in detail. They were in the workshop of a Murano furnace that closed in the early 2000s, but were made much earlier.

Each wall applique consists of two arms with gilded cups facing upward; three low curved leaves and in the center a flower and two tall leaves.

All pieces are handmade and none are identical to the other.

Complete. Dimensions: Height 45 cm; Width 40 cm; Depth 27 cm.

Electrical system functioning, suitable for E14 bulbs.
They will be shipped dismantled, for packaging safety.
Shipping is only to European Union countries, islands excluded.

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.
