Lustre en verre de Murano à six lumières, bras torsadés et feuilles

Le verre incolore, veiné par endroits de reflets dorés, domine tout le lustre. Six bras torsadés comme des cordages partent d'un fût central et se relèvent en larges bobèches aux bords festonnés, chacune portant une fausse bougie. Au-dessus, de longues feuilles dentelées s'arquent vers l'extérieur, accompagnées de deux fleurs de verre, et d'autres feuillages gainent le fût jusqu'à la couronne. Une pampille en pointe achève la silhouette vers le bas. La lumière court le long des torsades et s'accroche à chaque dent des feuilles.

Le lustre de Murano naît vers 1700, lorsque les verriers couvrent ses bras de feuilles, de fleurs et de fruits de verre, les ciocche ; Giuseppe Briati crée le modèle Rezzonico pour le palais devenu Ca' Rezzonico. L'île concentre les verreries vénitiennes depuis la loi du 8 novembre 1291. Après un déclin sous la domination napoléonienne, l'industrie renaît à partir des années 1920 avec Venini, Barovier & Toso et Seguso, qui relancent notamment les lustres. Celui-ci est présenté comme de Murano et daté du XXe siècle, sans verrerie ni designer nommés.

Colourless glass, veined here and there with golden glints, dominates the whole chandelier. Six arms twisted like rope spring from a central stem and turn up into wide drip pans with scalloped rims, each carrying a faux candle. Above, long serrated leaves arch outward alongside two glass flowers, while further foliage sheathes the stem up to the crown. A pointed drop completes the silhouette below. Light runs along the twists and catches on every tooth of the leaves.

The Murano chandelier was born around 1700, when glassmakers dressed its arms with glass leaves, flowers and fruit, the ciocche; Giuseppe Briati created the Rezzonico model for the palace now known as Ca' Rezzonico. The island has gathered the Venetian glassworks since the law of 8 November 1291. After a decline under Napoleonic rule, the industry revived from the 1920s with Venini, Barovier & Toso and Seguso, who relaunched chandeliers in particular. This one is presented as Murano and dated to the twentieth century, with no glassworks or designer named.
