Italian Murano Tronchi Chandelier by Toni Zuccheri for Venini, 1960s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The elegant Murano glass chandelier made in Italy in the 60s. Designer Toni Zuccheri for Venini & Co. Venini & Co. played a leading role in the revival of Italy’s high-end glass industry, pairing innovative modernist designers with the skilled artisans in the centuries-old glass workshops on the Venetian island of Murano. While the company’s founder, Paolo Venini (1895–1959), was himself a highly talented glassware designer, his true genius was to invite forward-thinking Italian and international designers to Murano’s hallowed workshops to create Venini pieces — among them Giò Ponti, Massimo Vignelli, Finnish designer Tapio Wirkkala, Thomas Stearnsof the United States and Fulvio Bianconi. Such a chandelier is rarely found in yellow. Very good vintage condition. Consists of 29 parts. Requires four standard Edison E14. Maximum height with cable 75 cm, can be extended up to 110 cm. The chandelier weighs 13 kg.
