Pair of Mid-Century Modernist Polyhedral Pendants w/ Geometric Brushed Aluminum
-
Description
This stunning pair of Mid-Century Modern chandeliers was realized by the esteemed atelier of Venini in Murano, Italy- the island off the coast of Venice renowned for centuries for its superlative glass production- circa 1970. They feature translucent polyhedral shades (one of the most iconic designs in Italian lighting history) arranged in a circular formation interspersed with hourglass form brass embellishments. The bottom of the chandeliers are fitted with a frosted glass circular plate and secured with brass finials. With their beautiful glass quality and clean modernist lines, this pair of chandeliers would be a winning addition to any style of interior from Classic Mid-Century Modern to contemporary. They have been newly rewired to American standards and are in excellent vintage condition. They accommodate 4 Edison bulbs each offering up to 400 watts of light.
