The thick, slightly curved leaves are arranged in a regular and harmonious pattern around the center, secured by small gold-plated screws that highlight the craftsmanship. The glass features delicate, sophisticated hues—powder pink, smoky gray, and transparent amber—that alternate, creating a soft, balanced chromatic effect. The surfaces are polished, yet have a subtle internal texture that diffuses the light in a warm, enveloping way. The internal brass frame, only partially visible, adds a precious, retro touch to the overall design. A label reading "Seguso Vetri d'Arte – Murano – Made in Italy" is applied to the front glass, certifying the high-quality craftsmanship typical of the Murano tradition, lending the piece artistic and collectible value.
This is a single Seguso wall light, marked on a leaf. It likely belonged to the Bristol Hotel in Merano, designed by Gio Ponti. It's an important museum piece.
New electrical system with 5 lamp holders and 14. Ceiling or wall light. Single piece, brass and iron supporting structure.
The glass leaves are not cracked\. they may show small signs of aging.
