Its textured surface was achieved using the Rugiadoso technique—fine particles scattered across the interior to create a misted, crystalline effect. The form is richly dimensional, with scalloped edges and radiating patterns that catch the light in layered relief. A warm brass finial anchors the base.

Murano, the storied island in the Venetian lagoon, has been at the heart of glassmaking for over 700 years. Its artisans shaped molten glass through breath and flame, passing techniques from master to apprentice—each piece a quiet echo of that enduring craft.

Condition: Great vintage condition. The glass shade is free of chips or cracks, with minor surface marks consistent with age. Brass finial shows light patina. This fixture has been professionally rewired by our team of restorationists with new sockets. Accepts two E12 candelabra base light bulbs.
