About This Piece

Vintage Design

A superb 20th Century chandelier manufactured by Mazzega, made in the famous island of Murano, Venice, in Italy around the 1960s. A circular chrome frame supports three U-shaped arms, the overall structure adorned with four beautiful orange and clear glass diffusers. These captivating items emanate the very essence of vintage Italian charm. The gracefully sculpted design exudes elegance, infusing the space with the nostalgic ambiance of a bygone era. Timeless pieces that effortlessly blend nostalgia, elegance and artistry.

The origins of the Mazzega glassworks date back to 1929, when Romano Mazzega set up a small company in Murano bearing his name. The factory produced high quality pieces, but mostly inspired by the work of its competitors. In 1937, Romano Mazzega was sold to Aureliano Toso, who renamed it Vetri Decorativi Rag. Aureliano Toso. The following year, Romano Mazzega opened a new glassworks, Fratelli Mazzega, in partnership with his brother Gino and sister Maria. The company was renamed I.V.R. (Industrie Vetrarie Riunite) Mazzega, around 1950.

The post-war period offered Mazzega the opportunity to develop the Degli Angeli, a cooperative of artists founded in 1950 in Murano: Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Jean Coartistique considerable with the execution entrusted to the prestigious master Ermanno Nason of a series of creations according to the projects of some of the most famous contemporary artists solicited by the Fucinacteau or Georges Braque. At the same time, it welcomes independent designers such as Luigi Scarpa Croce, Aldo Bergamini, Carlo Scarpa and Renzo Burchiellaro. from 1958 onwards, the company I.V.R. Mazzega had the painter Gianfranco Purisiol as its artistic director. During his four years at Mazzega, he developed a highly original glass art in which the fantastic variety of shapes fully integrates and enhances the successful characteristics of the company's style: luminous colours, softly diffused, in the intimacy of a magnificent crystal. This glassworks ceased all activity in 1983.
