Description
This flower-shaped pendant lamp, designed by Carlo Nason for Kalmar Franken, is a beautiful example of 1960s Italian lighting design. Known for his innovative use of Murano glass, Nason brought a playful yet functional aesthetic to this piece.

Comprising three elegantly shaped glass petals, the lamp features a striking combination of transparent and green tones. The glass, created using the traditional Murano ghiaccio technique, has a textured appearance that adds depth and visual interest. Each petal is suspended from a metal fixture, and the total height of the piece, including the spiral cord, reaches 107 cm. The lamp is fitted with an E27 bulb socket, making it compatible with a wide range of modern lighting solutions.This pendant light encapsulates the timeless appeal of mid-century modern design. Its organic, floral form combined with the craftsmanship of Murano glass makes it an exceptional piece for both vintage and contemporary interiors.
Condition
The overall condition is good. Please note that the spiral cord garnered a more off white color as the years passed and there is some oxidation on the metal fixture. -
