Materials: 24 Murano hand-blown crystal glass discs made of white and clear glass. Metal chromed frame. One of the discs has a little bit of damage, very difficult to see, I made a picture of it, see the pictures. Chain length: 60 cm Height: 40/45 cm Width: ∅ 40/45 cm Period: 1950s, 1970s – Mid-Century Modern. Designer: Gino Vistosi (1925-1980). Manufacturer: Vistosi, AV Mazzega and many other Murano companies made these lights. Other versions: different sizes and colours, more or less discs, wall lamp, flush mount, table lamp. In Germany and some other countries in Europe acrylic discs chandeliers were produced among others by Aro Leuchte (Arnold Licht GmbH) from Borken. It is always said that Gino Vistosi designed these lamps, but all of the light producers on the Murano island made them. It was a big hit and they were made for more than 50 years. Few are marked or have a label. The largest producer was AV Mazzega. Vistosi Vistosi was created by Guglielmo Vistosi in Murano in 1945, focusing on lighting. After his premature death his sons Gino and Luciano, joined their uncle Oreste in the founding of the Vistosi company. In 1956 Alessandro Pianon, a Venetian Architect, joined the company and together with second generation Luciano and Gino Vistosi they gave a swing to the company focusing on innovation and design. The company has employed some very relevant designers such as Angelo Mangiarotti, Gae Aulenti, Peter Pelzel, Ettore Sottsass Jr., Adalberto Dal Lago, Vico Magistretti, Enrico Tronconi and so on. In 1989 Giancarlo Moretti, a businessman from Murano with a lot of experience in the glass sector with Vetrofond and Punto Luce, acquires the prestigious brand, giving birth to Vetreria Vistosi. The sole survivor of the original founders, Luciano, born 24 February 1930, dedicated himself to research and glass sculpture until his death (in Venice) on 14 May 2010. This is what this chandelier looks like without turning on the light bulbs.
