AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Spectacular and imposing pendant chandelier in Venini style, characterized by a “fountain” (or water jet) design with great visual impact and elegant dramatic presence.

The metal framework formed by curved stems supports a rich and rigorous arrangement of 76 handcrafted Murano blown glass pendants, skillfully distributed on 4 concentric levels:

Three outer levels, each composed of 20 pendants (60 pieces in total).
A central level, adjacent to the light sources, composed of 16 pendants (16 pieces).

The pendants feature a refined elongated teardrop finish (with a bulb terminal) in a splendid two-tone alternation between transparent glass (crystal) and amber/honey colored glass, creating warm refractions and a soft, enveloping illumination. Included in the lot are 2 spare pendants (for a total of 78 glass elements).

Technical specifications and dimensions:
Type: Pendant chandelier / sculptural chandelier
Style: Mid-Century Modern / Venini Style / Murano
Era: 1970s
Light points: 6 bulbs (standard socket)
Generous dimensions: Diameter about 50 cm | Glass/metal body height about 60 cm (total height adjustable via chain and canopy).

Conditions and Shipping:
The chandelier is in excellent preserved condition, complete and without significant cracks or chipping on the assembled pieces. Original electrical system from the era is functioning (a qualified electrician should still check it according to the regulations of the destination country).

Note for shipping: To ensure maximum safety during transport and avoid damage to the delicate Murano glass, the chandelier will be shipped completely disassembled (frame and individual pendants packaged separately with professional care), ready to be easily reassembled on arrival.
