An Absolute Masterpiece of Light & Color:
This extraordinary chandelier is far more than a light fixture—it is a luminous sculpture capturing the vibrant energy and playful optimism of 1970s Italian Space Age design. The defining feature of this showpiece is the hypnotic and magnetic color of its oversized, cased Murano glass discs. A brilliant apple/acid green core is layered over an inner lattimo (milk) glass soul, melting into a flawlessly clear crystal outer border that appears to float in mid-air. When illuminated, the contrast comes alive, casting a warm, sophisticated, and deeply cinematic glow that instantly transforms any space.
Architectural Rigor & Archival Rarity:
Setting it apart from more common pyramidal cascades, this model features a highly coveted and rarer "drum-shaped" double parallel corona structure. The polished chrome/nickel-plated arms are arranged in a precise, staggered checkerboard layout—an avant-garde archival design engineered to create a seamless, voluminous wall of continuous glass. With its bold, expansive diameter and sleek vertical profile, this chandelier is a statement piece of immense character, destined to command attention over a dining table or anchor a high-end contemporary interior.
