This specific piece represents a luxury custom-grade variant of the classic mushroom lamp, boasting premium materials and official documentation that secure its authenticity.
a masterpiece of materials and luxury details
the amethyst gems: unlike standard production models, this lamp features 3 massive, hand-shaped murano glass inserts in a rare amethyst purple hue. Bound in polished brass claws, they act as safeguards for the glass shade while creating a magnificent color contrast.
hand-blown glass: the generous mushroom shade (40 cm diameter) and the elegant central stem are crafted from pristine hand-blown incamiciato satin murano glass. Weighing a substantial 4.4 kg, the density of the glass ensures a perfectly uniform, soft, and glare-free ambient glow.
organic silhouette: the intentional slight organic tilting of the stem and the asymmetric arrangement of the three arms are absolute proof of its 100% handcrafted nature. It is a sculptural light born exactly this way in the furnace.
advanced 1970s technology
original relco milano dimmer: the lamp is equipped with its ultra-rare original 1970s relco milano floor dimmer in a matching bronze-gold finish. This advanced slide dimmer allows cutting-edge light intensity control from 40w up to 160w, creating different atmospheres.
100% certified authenticity
official archival label: the original vetri murano sticker is still perfectly preserved inside the shade, bearing the factory code 012 (corresponding to aureliano toso - firme di vetro spa).
engraved signature: the polished brass base also features a hand-etched monogram "cn mr" with a diamond tip. Sold as an attribution to the high-end furnace production of the late 1970s.
