Midcentury Venetian Brass and Mouth Blown Murano White Glass Chandelier, 1940s

Superb Italian chandelier in white reticello Murano glass and brass, this rare piece was designed in the style of Venini in Italy in the 1940s. This finely crafted chandelier is fully made in Murano glass. The central shade is made in "Reticello" art glass which is at its best when lit. The two lateral arms are in hand-blown glass and connect to a central column in brass that has been kept with its natural patina, which gave the metal a fantastic bronzed tone, amplifying it's charm and historical value. An unique and incredibly elegant piece that will perfectly complement a Mid-Century living room or an Art Deco entryway...

Stunning Mid Century White and Crystal "Tessuto" Murano Glass Chandelier. This beautiful object was produced in Italy in the 70s by Venini.
