Vintage Mid-Century Italian Murano Glass 4-Arm Chandelier Frame – Attributed to Barovier & Toso, c. 1940s-1950s. FOR PARTS/RESTORATION
A magnificent 26-inch vintage Italian Murano glass 4-arm chandelier skeleton frame. A prime example of mid-century Venetian hand-blown glass mastery, this fixture body strongly reflects the iconic styling and mechanical construction of Barovier & Toso or Ercole Barovier.The piece features four thick, hand-blown clear glass sleeves crafted with a classic twisted, ribbed (rostrato-style) texture. Each glass element encases a structural hollow brass support arm and secures seamlessly via industrial hexagonal brass locking nuts on the top side—a signature trait of premier mid-century Venetian fixtures meant for secure disassembly. The central brass collar retains its original configuration for internal routing of the wiring.
