About the Item

This chandelier is a fascinating example of Murano glass art, produced in the 1970s by the renowned Mazzega company, and combines tradition and modernity through a chrome-plated metal frame. The polished and contemporary chrome-plated metal frame serves as a solid support and canvas for the refined glass elements, enhancing their shapes and colors. The visual centerpiece of the chandelier is five curved petal-shaped pieces of glass, arranged to form a corolla. These elements, with their internal grained texture, evoke an image of delicacy and lightness, giving the illusion of a floral corolla and diffusing light suggestively. The clear glass features elegant shades of brown, adding depth and warmth to the design. The grained texture inside the glass further enriches the object. The result is a cozy and refined atmosphere made up of plays of light and shadow that enhance every detail. MURANO GLASS Murano glass is a type of art glass produced on the island of Murano, located in the Venice lagoon, Italy. This glass is renowned for its beauty, craftsmanship and centuries-old tradition. The distinctive features of Murano glass include: 1. Vibrant and rich colors: Murano glass is famous for its wide range of vibrant colors. Artisans use a variety of pigments to create rich and intense shades. 2. Handwork: Murano glass making is an art that requires skill and precision. Artisans follow traditional techniques passed down from generation to generation, often shaping glass by hand with specialized tools. 3. Murrine: Murrine are small sections of stained glass arranged in a specific pattern within a larger sheet. This technique is typical of Murano glass and can be used to create complex geometric designs or images. 4. Lampwork: Some Murano glass objects are created using the technique of "lampwork," which involves manipulating glass tubes heated over a flame to shape them into desired shapes. 5. Transparency and luminosity: Murano glass is known for its crystal clear transparency and ability to reflect light magnificently. This attribute contributes to its beauty and makes it ideal for creating jewelry, chandeliers and art objects.
