(Click to Enlarge)This wonderful and very rare amber colored glass chandelier is attributed to Napoleone Martinuzzi (1892-1977) for Venini. Measures 30\" wide by 37\" tall. There is some old wiring intact, but wiring should be inspected by an electrician and upgraded as necessary. Ceramic bulb sockets appear to be original, and there is no evidence of any repairs or restorations anywhere on the piece. Only known hallmark is the stamped mark of the metalworking company that provided the framework for the piece. Additional images forwarded upon request.Two very similar works by Martinuzzi can be found in plates 12 and 13 of the Venini Catalogue Raisonne 1921-1986 by Anna Venini Diaz de Santillana. (Please see photos below.) Plate 12 is a work in amber glass like our chandelier and is described as a \"Glass Drop Chandelier, 1926-1930, Gardone Riviera, Prioria, Bagno Blu cat. no. 23.\" (Gardone Riviera is a health resort on the Italian coast, famous for the poet Gabriele D\'Annunzio\'s monumental villa, Il Vittoriale degli Italiani, also known as Prioria. Thus, the reference to Prioria suggests the piece was either commissioned by the poet for the estate or it\'s simply a statement of provenance.) Martinuzzi was Art Director of Vetri Soffiati Muranesi Venini & C. from 1925 to 1931.jjj italian italia italy venice venetian murano paolo veniniOur client has this item offered for sale in their retail shop.
