Description
Unique, Hand Blown Italian Mid-Century, Murano Glass Suspension Chandelier / Pendant by Gino Vistosi in a dramatic balance of color with golds and deep cobalt blue. The piece presents pure, minimal, yet sensuous forms. A clear glass undulating form pendant with a single socket is suspended inside the larger gold and cobalt pendant providing intrigue and drama. A unique suspension system holds the piece in place by 2 round cobalt blue balls that provide a tension anchor to the wire ropes. The overall height shown: 55" but this can modified to suit taste to as low as 32" while still maintaining function and drama.
