Pair of Mid Century Modern 8 Arm Chrome & Mottled Murano Glass Chandeliers

Creator: Sciolari Lighting
Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
This stunning pair of Mid Century Modern chandelier was realized by the fabled 20th century designer, Gaetano Sciolari in Italy circa 1970. They offer a grouping of sixteen volumetric rectangular cubic bodies in brushed chrome attached via lustrous chrome supports. The bodies culminate in rectilinear handblown Murano shades with concave centers and expressionistic mottled white detailing throughout the glass, offering an organic counterpoint to the geometric forms expressed elsewhere in the fixture. The chandeliers attach to the ceiling via a polished chrome cylindrical rod and a volumetric rectangular canopy, emphasizing and reiterating a form that appears as a signature element throughout the chandelier. With its iconic Sciolari sensibility- full of verve and elan- this piece is sure to delight discerning collectors of first rate Italian Mid Century design, as well as those with a penchant for exquisite objects. Its clean modernist lines and monochromatic palate ensure that it would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly rewired to American standards and is in excellent vintage condition. The height can be adjusted to suit. Each chandelier accommodates eight candelabra based bulbs offering up to 480 watts of light. Sold individually at $9475.
