Black murano pendant lamp Italy 1970s Mid-century italian modern lighting
Very unusual and rare black murano hanging lamp made in Italy in the 1970s.
The lamp making technique is called Aventurina. This is a technique in which metal flakes are embedded in glass, when it is in a molten state. When the glass is slowly cooled, it gives out an exquisite sheen. Thereafter, it is blown into the required shapes. The shimmer resulting from the metal particles implanted in the glass gives the articles a special look. Since the design cannot be effectively controlled, the artisans named the technique ‘aventurina’ meaning ‘chance’
Perfect vintage condition. No chips or cracks.
