Barovier e Toso rostratto chandelier

Description

A 1940s Murano Italian design. Classic and elegant chandelier by Barovier e Toso. Clear blown glass Rostrato technique with bronzed brass details. Six shades and light bulbs. The circular base of this lighting fixture holds the six vessel shaped shades. This chandelier is a good example of the complex ‘rostrato’ technique invented by Ercole Barovier in 1938, which consists of extending a series of points from the blown glass that gives it a’ Prehistoric’ almost Brutalist look. The result is very elegant.
