The term “tronchi” (Italian for “trunks” or “logs”) refers to the chandelier’s signature design: thick, textured hand-blown glass tubes that hang vertically around a metal frame, often arranged in multiple cascading tiers. Popular in mid-century modern interiors during the 1960s and 1970s, these chandeliers are valued for their craftsmanship and sculptural look, with each glass tube individually made by artisans. Authentic vintage examples typically feature brass or chrome frames hidden behind the glass and can be highly collectible, with values ranging from hundreds to several thousand dollars depending on size, condition, and maker.

This chandelier is in excellent vintage condition - no cracks or breaks in the glass.
