Midcentury Vistosi Chandelier Murano Italy Orange Chandelier, circa 1960

Amazing and Fantastic large chandelier-type lamp designed by Carlo Nason for the Venetian house Mazzega. It has a metal structure from which an infinity of white Murano glass discs hang with a salmon-colored circle, 26 cm in diameter. The Mazzega house was founded in the 40s as an artisan glass factory, evolving to become a benchmark in design and avant-garde. About Carlo Nason Italian designer Carlo Nason was born into a family of expert glassmakers in 1935 in Murano, Venice. His father, Vincenzo Nason, ran the renowned Nason Moretti glass company and opened a second glass company under the name Vincenzo Nason & C in 1941.

Driven by his passion for design, especially clean geometric shapes, Nason decided in the 1960s to distance himself from his family's business, which specialized primarily in highly traditional ornate decorative objects.

Mazzega, and the company invited Nason to collaborate on new collections. The partnership lasted from 1965 through the 1980s and resulted in a variety of iconic lighting designs that remain in demand today. Parallel to the collaboration with A. V. Mazzega, Nason also...
