Lustre de Murano en verre bleu, cinq tulipes et volutes

Tout le verre est teinté d'un bleu de ciel léger, plus soutenu là où la matière s'épaissit. Du fût central partent de grandes volutes enroulées en crosse, qui dessinent des cœurs en s'affrontant, puis cinq longs bras qui retombent pour porter autant de tulipes évasées, tournées vers le sol. Des gouttes transparentes pendent sous la coupelle et au sommet, et de petites pastilles en framboise ornent la boule du fût. Chaque tulipe laisse voir sa douille et son ampoule. L'ensemble a la légèreté d'un dessin à la plume.

La verrerie de Murano a connu ses éclipses. Après la conquête napoléonienne de 1797, elle décline, puis renaît à partir de 1866 sous l'impulsion d'Antonio Salviati et de l'abbé Vincenzo Zanetti, et le lustre devient son produit emblématique. Les lustres de type Ca' Rezzonico se déclinent en cinq, six, huit lumières ou davantage, et peuvent réunir des centaines de pièces soufflées à la main sur une armature de métal. Ce lustre du XXe siècle, plus aérien, n'a ni verrier ni modèle nommés.

Read in English

All the glass is tinted a light sky blue, deepening where the material thickens. From the central stem spring large scrolls curled like crooks, which form hearts as they face one another, then five long arms that fall to carry as many flared tulips turned towards the floor. Clear drops hang beneath the cup and at the top, and small raspberry prunts stud the ball of the stem. Each tulip reveals its socket and bulb. The whole has the lightness of a pen drawing.

Murano glassmaking has known its eclipses. After the Napoleonic conquest of 1797 it declined, then revived from 1866 under Antonio Salviati and Abbot Vincenzo Zanetti, and the chandelier became its emblematic product. Chandeliers of the Ca' Rezzonico type come with five, six, eight lights or more, and may gather hundreds of hand-blown pieces on a metal frame. This twentieth century chandelier, airier in spirit, has neither glassmaker nor model named.
