while an official attribution cannot be verified, the design strongly echoes the iconic aesthetic of gaetano sciolari’s legendary 'trumpet' series.
the clean, architectural lines, sleek polished chrome finishes, and striking structural presence show an evident stylistic kinship to sciolari's masterful work.

each pendant features a beautifully shaped trumpet neck that flows effortlessly into a substantial, rounded cup made of hand-blown mazzega pulegoso glass.
characterized by its countless deliberate air bubbles, this artisanal glass masterfully shapes and diffuses the light.
the result is a unique, glittering light effect that casts a warm, dramatic, and mesmerizing glow across the entire room.

each of the three pendants features a standard large edison screw socket (e27 fitting), making it highly versatile for various lighting preferences, including modern led filaments.
the overall structure is solid, the finishes are of excellent quality, and the entire electrical system has been thoroughly inspected and verified by a professional for absolute safety.
