A striking floor lamp in chromed metal, opaline, and mottled glass, hand-crafted on the island of Murano, Venice, circa 1970. The design features a sculptural composition with a mottled glass sphere crowning the piece, radiating a soft, diffused glow.
Beneath, three stacked sections of opaline glass each house a bulb fitting within, creating a layered illumination that can be adjusted for mood and atmosphere. The sleek chromed metal structure provides a crisp contrast to the delicate glass, enhancing both the geometry and the luminosity of the design. A sophisticated example of Murano craftsmanship, this lamp embodies the elegance and inventiveness of Italian mid-century lighting.
Murano has been synonymous with glassmaking excellence for centuries, with artisans perfecting complex techniques such as mottled finishes, opaline layering, and multi-part structures. This lamp reflects that enduring tradition of innovation, marrying technical mastery with refined aesthetics. As both a functional light source and a sculptural statement, it brings timeless Venetian artistry into the modern home.
