Six bras de verre ambré, lustre de Murano vers 1950

Le verre, d'un ambre léger tirant sur le fumé, garde une transparence parfaite. Un fût en balustre descend d'une couronne de feuilles pointues ; autour de lui s'élancent des crosses côtelées qui s'enroulent en spirales serrées, et six bras en col de cygne portent chacun une large bobèche évasée et une fausse bougie. Des gouttes pendent sous chaque volute, sous chaque bras et à la pointe du vase central. En traversant cette matière, la lumière s'adoucit en reflets de miel et de thé. Rien n'y pèse.

Murano doit sa vocation à une décision de 1291 : craignant les incendies, la République de Venise fait détruire les fours de la ville, et les verriers gagnent l'île. Au XXe siècle, la maison Barovier, fondée en 1896, et Paolo Venini renouvellent cette tradition en travaillant avec des artistes et des designers. Dans les années 1950 et 1960, le verre de Murano se produit en grandes quantités pour l'exportation et les voyageurs, et Venini comme Barovier & Toso réalisent alors des lustres ambrés. L'intitulé dit Murano sans nommer de verrerie ; la fiche date celui-ci vers 1950.

Read in English

The glass, a light amber shading towards smoke, keeps a perfect transparency. A baluster stem descends from a crown of pointed leaves; around it rise ribbed crooks that curl into tight spirals, and six swan-neck arms each carry a wide flared drip pan and a candle sleeve. Drops hang beneath every volute, every arm and the tip of the central vase. Passing through this material, light softens into reflections of honey and tea. Nothing weighs.

Murano owes its calling to a decision of 1291: fearing fire, the Republic of Venice had the city's furnaces destroyed, and the glassmakers moved to the island. In the twentieth century the Barovier house, founded in 1896, and Paolo Venini renewed that tradition by working with artists and designers. In the 1950s and 1960s Murano glass was produced in large quantities for export and for travellers, and both Venini and Barovier & Toso made amber chandeliers at the time. The title says Murano without naming a glassworks; the listing dates this one to around 1950.
