"Authentic pair of restored 1950s Murano AVEM lamps featuring rare Pink Zanfirico and Latticino Garza glass techniques..."
This is a museum-quality matched pair of authentic AVEM (Arte Vetraria Muranese) lamps. Hand-blown in Murano, Italy, these pieces showcase the pinnacle of 1950s Venetian glasswork, featuring a complex interplay of traditional filigree techniques.
Technical Artistry
Latticino Garza (Gauze): The white sections consist of incredibly fine, microscopic mesh canes that create a delicate fabric-like texture within the glass.
Pink Zanfirico: Alternating with the Garza are vibrant pink ribbons entwined with rich gold aventurine (gold dust).
Opaline Accents: The glass bodies terminate in a graceful white opaline flared foot.
Professional Restoration
Glass: Deep cleaned inside and out; the glass is clear with no chips or cracks.
Metalwork: The tiered bases and caps have been meticulously refreshed with a professional antique gold gilt.
Electrical: Updated with new sockets for safety and longevity.
Shades: New white cloth with satin liner 12" high 14" wide are included.
Hardware: Equipped with adjustable brass harps to customize shade height.
Dimensions & Provenance
Markings: Clearly marked on the base with the original black/gold AVEM Murano seal, "Made in Italy" stamp, and original paper inventory tag.
Glass Dimensions: 9" Tall x 4 1/2" Wide.
Overall Height: Adjustable from 22" to 25" to the top of the harp (16" to the top of the socket).
