About
Vintage Glass Gems is an independent specialist in authentic vintage Italian lighting, founded and operated from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, in northeastern Italy.
We source, authenticate, and ship original mid-century lighting fixtures directly from Italy to collectors, interior designers, and design enthusiasts worldwide. Every piece is a one-of-a-kind original — not a reproduction, not a reinterpretation.
Somebody else's treasure
Read the full storyBefore Vintage Glass Gems, we spent six years running an electronics repair company, built around one simple idea: things that still have life in them shouldn't end up in a scrapyard. The same instinct brought us to vintage lighting. In Friuli and Veneto, when someone inherits a house and starts renovating, the old Murano chandelier is often the first thing to go. To the family it's clutter, a reminder of their grandmother's house. To us it's hand-blown Murano glass of the highest quality, shaped by skilled glassmakers, one of a kind and impossible to replicate today. Saving it means keeping a small piece of Italian craftsmanship alive.

A Room for Every Gem
Vintage lights were made for real homes, not showrooms. A Murano pendant over the dining table, a pair of sconces by the bed, a small lamp in the hallway: each one changes how a room feels in the evening.
Not sure what fits where? Start with the room. We’ve grouped our pieces by the spaces they suit best, from the living room to the nursery.

I'm very satisfied with my purchase. It's exactly what I was looking for. Also noteworthy is the absolute care taken in preparing the protective packaging. And indeed, everything arrived in perfect condition!
