This handcrafted Cristallo Murano chandelier has five undulating scroll arms and features a bulbous center column with sprouting natural details, stylized here with daffodils and leaves. The arms terminate in petal-trimmed rounded cups. The surface of this piece features a pillowy quilted texture throughout, giving this piece an added visual interest. The body and arms of this piece are made of clear, colorless glass. The piece has further detailing of scroll stems, twirling leaf ends, and rigaree trim; exhibiting a masterful flair in glass craftsmanship.
The glasshouses on the island of Murano are famous for highly ornamented glass chandeliers made of pincered and molded blown glass. This elegant chandelier showcases a mastery of glass craftsmanship. This mid-century chandelier is a pared-down interpretation of the ‘Ca'Rezzonico’ style of chandeliers created by Giuseppe Briati in the 18th century. The ‘Ca'Rezzonico’ style is named for the Venetian palace, today a public museum dedicated to 18th century Venice, where Briati’s initial masterpiece resides.
This chandelier evokes the splendor of the past centuries through delicate decorations, refined craftsmanship, and an elegant structure. The cristallo glass creates a warm atmosphere when illuminated and would be a lovely addition to any diving room, living room, or entryway.
