Carlo Nason Murano Glass Pendant for Mazzega, 1970s

Italian Murano Glass Pendant

A sculptural Italian pendant lamp from the 1970s, attributed to Carlo Nason for Mazzega. The piece features a hand-blown transparent Murano glass diffuser with irregular white inclusions throughout, creating an expressive organic pattern and a warm diffused light when illuminated.

Carlo Nason for Mazzega

The design is attributed to Carlo Nason and manufactured by Mazzega, reflecting the experimental approach to Murano glass lighting that characterised Italian design during the 1970s. The combination of expressive hand-worked glass and chromed metal gives the pendant a distinctive sculptural presence.

Sculptural Glass and Chrome Design

The broad mushroom-shaped diffuser is complemented by a distinctive chromed metal fitting formed from stacked circular rings. The contrast between the industrial chrome structure and the irregular white decoration within the transparent glass gives the pendant a strong Space Age character.
