Postmodern Murano Glass and Chromed Steel 'San Basilio' Chandelier, 1980s

Creator: Carlo Moretti
Offered by: After Midnight

Description
A 'San Basilio' series chandelier designed by Gian Paolo Canova for Carlo Moretti. The design features a central chrome-plated cone from which curved translucent green glass arms emerge, decorated with blue glass. Each arm supports a vertical stack of clear and frosted glass cones, with pendant lamps suspended from industrial-style metal armatures. This model is a significant example of late 20th-century Murano glass production and is rarely found with its original elements intact.
