It has a timeless style and is beautiful when turned on or off, it adapts to Bauhaus, Art-deco, minimal and modernist furnishings, as well as to current furnishings.
Late 1950s, composed of 123 hand-blown ice-coloured and pink polyhedra, original of the time, six lights with large socket and signed Venini on the structure.
Measurements 55x55x60 cm.
All the polyhedra are in good condition and have no chips that would compromise their functional or aesthetic use.
Oxidation defects on the structure and hardware, slight defects. All polyhedra are hand-blown into molds from the Venini furnace in Murano in Venice.
Electrical system not tested but most likely working.
All the hardware is present and original, stop washers, closing caps of the first two rows and round screws holding the polyhedrons to the structure.
It practically has the same characteristics as when it came out of the Venini furnace, except for the oxidation of the supporting structure and the connection irons, but which testifies to the authenticity of almost 70 years.
2 spare polyhedra will also be sent,
The polyhedra are arranged in 52 rows of 2 and 19 rows of 1.
The shipment will take place in a professionally sealed and fall-proof container. Due to the complexity of dismantling and encapsulating the chandelier, the shipment will take place in 2/3 working days.
We do not ship outside the EU.
