Have a question about this piece?

A Murano glass pendant light from about the 1950s: a hand-blown blue glass globe with a honeycomb relief, fitted with wood and chrome parts.

The deep blue glass gives a warm, low light, good for a kitchen, a hallway or a small dining area. The glass is in very good shape overall, with one small chip on the bottom edge that is not visible once the lamp is hung. The wood and chrome show light wear from age, and the light works as it should.

All pieces use standard Edison screw fittings: E27 (large, most pendants and sconces) or E14 (small, table lamps and multi-arm chandeliers). A handful of pieces use halogen — noted in the listing. E27 and E26 are interchangeable with a simple ring adapter.

These are straightforward socket circuits with no built-in electronics, so they're fully voltage-agnostic — just fit a bulb rated for your local voltage (110V or 220V) and it works.

Plug-in lamps: you'll need a standard EU-to-local plug adapter (EU Type C/F to US Type A/B, UK Type G, AU Type I, etc.). No voltage converter required.

Outside the EU, please have a local electrician check the lamp before use.

Every vintage piece here was blown and shaped by hand in Italy, most of it in Murano glass, and no two are exactly alike. Lighting from those decades was made to last, with thick glass, solid metal and careful proportions, and it gives the soft, warm glow that new lamps rarely manage. It is sculpture as much as light: it moves with you from home to home, keeps its value, and stays beautiful for another fifty years.
