A Venetian glass table lamp by Vistosi, Italy, circa 1980
A rare and elegant table lamp by Vistosi, made in Italy towards the latter end of the 20th century. The entire structure of the lamp is made out of glass, including the lamp shade. Its large proportions make it a striking piece of art glass with the obvious benefit of a lovely illumination solution suitable for any interior, both modern or traditional. The opalescent white glass is accentuated the black glass detailing and marries so well with the clear glass structure or body. Reminiscent of strong Art Deco lines, it is a work of art which embodies the quality that defines Vetreria Vistosi as it has done for centuries.
