About the Item
A rare and poetic Murano glass chandelier from the 1950s, this sculptural piece embodies the romantic elegance and artistic freedom of Italian mid-century design. Entirely handcrafted in pure Murano glass, the chandelier is composed of delicately curved translucent leaves surrounding a softly textured pink central bowl, creating the impression of an exotic flower suspended in air.
The extraordinary craftsmanship is visible in every detail: the hand-pulled crystal leaves with subtle opalescent reflections, the twisted glass stem, and the refined pink pulegoso glass elements that gently diffuse natural light even when the fixture is switched off. The composition has an almost botanical grace, balancing lightness and theatricality in true Venetian tradition.
Unlike many decorative fixtures of the period, this chandelier possesses a distinctly sculptural presence. During the daytime it reflects natural light with soft pearlescent nuances, while in the evening it transforms into an ethereal luminous bloom. Its feminine character makes it particularly suitable for elegant bedrooms, dressing rooms, refined powder rooms, or sophisticated interiors seeking a romantic yet collectible statement piece.
Executed entirely by Murano artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations, this chandelier represents the exceptional creativity of the Venetian glassmaking ateliers during the golden age of Italian design.
A highly decorative and atmospheric piece, ideal for collectors of authentic Murano lighting and lovers of poetic Italian interiors.
đď¸ A grand salon on the Canal Grande
For decades, this chandelier hung at the heart of a noble Venetian palace overlooking the Canal Grande. Beneath it unfolded quiet conversations, discreet negotiations, and restrained toasts. Open windows allowed the gentle sound of water and passing gondolas to drift inside, while its light blended with the golden hues of Venetian sunsets.
It was never just a source of lightâit was a presence. The invisible center of the room.
⸝
đ The Von Planta family
It is said that this chandelier once belonged to a family connected to Family Plantaâa name that carries echoes of Central Europe, of journeys, diplomacy, and encounters between different worlds. Venice, after all, has always been exactly that: a bridge.
And this chandelier, a silent witness, observed generations pass and eras change, never losing its quiet elegance.
