Description

A charming and theatrical pair of vintage Italian bedside lights from the 1950s, each combining the elegance of a traditional candleholder form with a curved screen-style glass diffuser handpainted in rich blue and gold. The decorative finger holder detail adds a refined, almost jewellery-like quality — these are objects as much to be admired as to be used.

When illuminated, the handpainted glass casts a warm, richly coloured glow — intimate and flattering, perfectly suited to bedside tables, shelves, or romantic accent lighting in any interior that appreciates Italian decorative craft. A refined example of 1950s Italian ornamental lighting, where craftsmanship, ornament, and functionality are inseparable.

Our items are hand-blown vintage Murano glass, each unique and delicate. Always handle with care to avoid chips or cracks.

Cleaning


  • Use a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp microfiber cloth to gently wipe dust.

  • Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or soaking in water, as these can damage the glass or vintage finishes.

Electrical Safety


  • All lighting fixtures retain their original wiring. Before use, we recommend having the wiring checked by a qualified electrician, especially if the item is vintage.

  • Always use bulbs compatible with your local voltage and socket type.
