This era marked the revival of Italy’s prestigious glass industry, marrying modernist visions with the unparalleled skills of Murano’s artisans. Founder Paolo Venini’s genius lay not just in glassware design, but in inviting trailblazing designers like Giò Ponti and Tapio Wirkkala to create masterpieces in the glass workshops of Murano. Crafted by Venini's artisans, the "Eliche" chandelier bears the touch of these forward-thinking designers, creating a harmonious fusion of form and function. Composed of 22 meticulously crafted parts (16 large and 6 small), the chandelier is a testament to the structural grace achievable with Murano glass. The metallic base proudly carries the Venini engraving, a symbol of authenticity and a nod to the legacy of one of Italy’s most distinguished glass houses. Bask in the warm glow emanating from 2 standard E27 bulbs, as this chandelier illuminates not just spaces, but also the timeless elegance of Italian craftsmanship. Preserved in very good vintage condition, this chandelier stands as a symbol of enduring beauty and mid-century sophistication. Let the "Eliche" chandelier become the centerpiece of your space, infusing it with the grace of Murano glass and the legacy of Venini & Co. It's not just a luminary; it's a timeless testament to the marriage of art and craftsmanship.
