Mid-Century 8-Arm Handblown White & Jade Murano Scavo Glass Chandelier by Seguso

This materially dynamic and highly coveted Mid-Century Modernist Eight Arm Curved Hand-Blown Murano Scavo Glass Chandelier in White and Jade is by the esteemed Art Glass atelier Seguso and originates from Italy, Circa 1970. Features a minimal take on a timeless chandelier composition in hand-blown murano glass, both white and turquoise hues with a characteristic “Scavo” finish utilized by Seguso on a number of his pieces. This sumptuous matte texture provides remarkable material complexity with a calming and reserved profile overall. The eight arms of the piece expand from a round housing in the center of the chandelier. Extending beautifully from the center then curving upwards at the ends of the arms, subtle turquoise spacers support disks of scavo glass delineating the arms of the chandelier from the turquoise cylinders containing the sockets. The arching curves rise beautifully and create a stunning sense of gravity and elegance, with a rod and canopy formed in the same Scavo glass finish. This unique chandelier is powerful both materially and visually, styling well in a wide array of spaces and settings from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. Newly rewired to American Standards, this piece is in Excellent Vintage Condition. Accommodates 8 Edison Based Bulbs, offering 800 watts of light. Height can be adjusted to suit.

Italy, circa 1970
