Vintage 1950s Hand-Blown Clear Murano Glass Floor Lamp

DUTIES FREE WORLDWIDE

An original 1950s floor lamp in clear hand-blown Murano glass, about 180 cm (71 in) tall.
Slender, light and sculptural: Italian post-war design in its purest form.

Clarity as a choice
In this floor lamp, the glass has nothing to hide behind.
Every curve and thickness, and every trace of the blowing process, stays visible.
The result is a piece that feels light, almost weightless, while carrying the full depth of Murano craft.

A post-war silhouette
The line is slender and harmonious, typical of Italian design in the years after the war.
Its soft forms, shaped by hand, give the lamp a sculptural quality.
It's a source of light, and it's also a decorative, collectible object that holds its own when it's switched off.

Techniques from another time
This lamp was made with glassmaking techniques that are hard to match today with the same quality and manual skill.
Every detail keeps the individuality of true Murano art glass.
It is not a serial piece. No other lamp is exactly like it.

On colour and style:
Because it's clear, the lamp picks up the colours and materials around it.
It sits naturally in classic, vintage and mid-century interiors.
In contemporary spaces it becomes a refined contrast between tradition and modernity: hand-blown glass against clean lines, concrete, linen or pale wood.

Tip for designers: place it where daylight can reach the glass. Clear Murano glass comes alive in natural light, not only when the lamp is on.
