Italian 'Laguna' Murano Glass Chandelier by Renato Toso for Fratelli Toso, 1960s
The ‘Laguna’ model chandelier, designed by Renato Toso for Fratelli Toso in the 1960s, exemplifies mid-century Italian glass artistry. Crafted with 28 pieces of iridescent Murano glass, this fixture glows with pearlescent hues, shifting between soft blues, greens, and golds as the light changes. Designed with five lights, the glass delicately rests on a two-tier square metal frame in an ivory finish, creating a sculptural yet effortless aesthetic. Its layered, organic glass forms mirror the fluidity of water, a subtle homage to Venice’s lagoon, casting a serene, ethereal glow.
Renato Toso, a visionary in mid-century Italian design, was instrumental in elevating the art of Murano glass through his collaboration with the renowned Fratelli Toso glassworks. Toso blended tradition with modernism, creating sculptural glass lighting that exudes fluidity. His iconic Laguna model chandelier captures the ethereal beauty of Venice’s waterways, reflecting the artistry of Murano's glassmaking heritage. Toso’s work is celebrated for its organic forms and luminous textures, cementing his legacy in Italian design history.
