Lustre de Murano à six lumières, présenté comme Barovier

Six tulipes de verre incolore, faites d'écailles superposées dont chaque bord ourlé retient un reflet, s'élèvent au bout de bras courbes torsadés comme des cordes. Une longue tige, torsadée elle aussi, descend d'une coupe semblable fixée au plafond, rencontre une sphère quadrillée, puis un cadre rectangulaire de métal patiné qui porte l'ensemble. Le plan allongé de cette armature commande l'ordonnance des lumières, trois de chaque côté. Le verre, légèrement champagne dans l'épaisseur, s'allume dès que la lumière le traverse.

Le nom de Barovier traverse l'histoire de Murano : la famille y est citée dès 1324. En 1936, la Vetreria Artistica Barovier s'unit à Ferro Toso, et la maison prend en 1942 le nom de Barovier & Toso. Ercole Barovier, né en 1889 et mort en 1974, en conduit la création depuis 1927 ; les années 1930 le voient chercher des verres plus lourds, plus sculpturaux, jusqu'à la série Rostrato de 1938, tandis que la maison produit de nombreux lustres. Présenté sous ce nom, ce lustre n'est rattaché à aucun modèle précis.

Six tulips of colourless glass, built of overlapping scales whose rolled edges each hold a reflection, rise at the end of curved arms twisted like rope. A long stem, twisted in the same way, descends from a matching cup at the ceiling, meets a gridded sphere, then a rectangular frame of patinated metal that carries the whole. The elongated plan of this frame governs the arrangement of the lights, three to each side. The glass, faintly champagne in its thickness, comes alive as soon as light passes through it.

The Barovier name runs through the history of Murano: the family is recorded there from 1324. In 1936 the Vetreria Artistica Barovier joined Ferro Toso, and in 1942 the house took the name Barovier & Toso. Ercole Barovier, born in 1889, died in 1974, led its design from 1927; the 1930s saw him pursue heavier, more sculptural glass, up to the Rostrato series of 1938, while the house produced many chandeliers. Offered under this name, the chandelier is not linked to any specific model.
