1940s Barovier Murano Ceiling Pendant - Rostrato

1940s Barovier Murano Glass Pendant featuring a pear-shaped glass frame. The large, delicate central cup has two tiers: a rostrato (spiked) lower section, and an upper flared cup with subtle scalloping and playful bullicante (fine controlled bubbles). The ceiling rosette matches the central cup, pulling the piece together. An airy, sculptural pendant. 

Sourced in Italy, this piece comes from the historic Barovier tradition, one of Murano’s oldest and most revered glassmaking families. Its design reflects the atelier’s unique approach to light: hand-blown glass with gentle irregularities, refined proportions and a soft, atmospheric glow. Vintage Barovier works are prized for this balance of craftsmanship and restraint, an understated elegance that captures the essence of classic Venetian design.

Rewired to AUS standards.
