Pair of 1960s Vistosi Torcello Glass Disk Sconces by Gino Vistosi

About the Item

A stunning pair of 1960s glass disk sconces made in Murano, Italy. Designed by well known Italian designer Gino Vistosi for his lighting company Vistosi. Each sconce features hand formed oval disk chains that hang off of long and short alternating hooks on a semi circular frame. The disks are a mix of champagne and light smokey topaz brown in color.

This design is called Torcello (one of the first islands to be inhabited by people and the mythic birthplace of Venice). It was produced from 1960 to 1969s in sconces and various versions of chandeliers. A large chandelier version was published in Domas Magazine, no. 440 in July 1966 on page 105 and in the book I vetri di Murano, Milano, Bastetti, 1967. pp205 and 228 by Giovanni Mariacher.
