About the Item
Large Italian suspension lamp exquisite blown Murano glass in bell shape is blown in white, clear and a black border using the highly skilled technique that involves the merging colors. It is a great classic of the late 60s and early 70s, by the renowned designer Renato Toso i glass, for the famous Leucos luminaire manufacturer. This object is presented in very good condition.
Manufacturer: Luecos (since 1962) and Renato Toso are most outstanding art glass companies on the Venetian island of Murano. None of their lamps are identical and are all handmade / blown.
The lamp is hanging from a brass ring on a steel wire, leading to a brass canopy. The brass is oxidized through its age.
Outstanding design detail is that the perforations in the brass ring allow different hanging positions of the shade from downwards (as it is now) to sideways for more sculptural impact. The chosen position is then fixed permanently by a steel cable.

Renato Toso
Italian designer and architect Renato Toso creates beautiful mid-century modern and modern pendant lights and sconces out of creamy Murano glass. His designs have a chic retro appeal characterized by soft curves and effortless elegance. He is part of the design firm Toso, Massari & Associates, which he founded with his wife, designer Giovanna Noti Massari.
Toso was born in 1940 in Murano, Italy. Murano is a Venetian island with a long glassmaking tradition. Both Toso and Massari studied architecture in Venice and founded Toso, Massari & Associati in 1966. The studio specializes in architecture and lighting design for interior and industrial spaces.
Toso, Massari & Associati has partnered with numerous companies over the years, including lighting company Leucos, which Toso and Massari participated in founding. The studio has designed collections for historic lighting manufacturer Vistosi, one of Murano’s most prominent glassmakers. In 2007, Toso, Massari & Associati created a series of modular lamps called Ecos for the company. This series was followed up in 2013 by the Noon lamp collection, based on the moon’s phases.
The studio has won first place in several design competitions and shows, including the Venice Biennale, the Milan Triennial XII and the National Design Competition in Trieste. Its work has been exhibited at the Louvre in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Palazzo Grassi in Venice.
Today, Toso and Massari’s children — Anna, Marco, Pio and Tito —are all part of Toso, Massari & Associati.
