A striking pair of vintage Murano glass wall or ceiling lights attributed to Mazzega, showcasing the bold sculptural aesthetic that made Italian art glass lighting of the 1960s and 1970s so distinctive. Each fixture features a thick square glass shade handcrafted in traditional ghiacciato (iced) glass, characterised by its crystalline texture and dramatic uneven relief. Suspended within the clear glass are warm amber inclusions that appear to glow when illuminated, creating a beautiful contrast against the icy surface.

The organically textured glass has a rugged, almost geological appearance, embodying the expressive character often associated with Brutalist design while maintaining the elegance of Murano craftsmanship. Light interacts beautifully with the irregular relief, producing depth, sparkle, and constantly changing reflections. Mounted on white painted metal bases, these fixtures can be installed as either wall sconces or ceiling lights.

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.
