A stunning sculptural chandelier in the Palmette style, made in Italy during the 1980s, showcasing the timeless artistry of Murano glass craftsmanship. This elegant ceiling fixture features a dynamic composition of individually hand-blown Murano glass leaves, each with a rippled surface texture and a graceful, upwardly arched tip, reminiscent of stylized palm fronds.
Arranged in a concentric two-tier structure, the clear glass elements radiate from a central brass-toned frame with warm golden patina. The leaves are mounted with contrasting dark bronze-tone fasteners, adding depth and refined detail to the overall silhouette.
From below, the chandelier displays a rosette-shaped finial in molded glass, surrounded by perfectly spaced glass leaves, giving the piece a symmetrical and luminous flower-like appearance. Internally, a set of multi-directional sockets provides generous illumination, filtered through the textured glass for a soft, ambient glow.
