Italian Murano Glass Floor Lamp attributed to Carlo Nason

This striking Italian floor lamp from the 1960s captures the refined interplay between geometry, light, and material that defined the golden era of Murano design. In the style of Carlo Nason / Mazzega, it combines a sleek chrome-plated metal structure with three hand-blown Murano glass globes, arranged in an elegant vertical composition.

The combination of chrome and Murano glass became a hallmark of Italian lighting in the 1960s and 1970s, pioneered by designers such as Carlo Nason for Mazzega and Reggiani. These pieces merged industrial precision with artisanal glassmaking, resulting in designs that remain as contemporary and relevant today as when they were first introduced. This floor lamp exemplifies that perfect balance of craftsmanship, proportion, and light.

The chrome tubes rise from a circular base in varying heights, creating a dynamic rhythm of light. Each opaline glass diffuser emits a warm, soft glow, producing an ambient atmosphere that is both sculptural and serene. Whether illuminated or not, the piece stands as a testament to mid-century Italian craftsmanship and modernist sophistication.

Perfect as a statement piece in a living room, hallway, or design interior, this lamp embodies the era’s fascination with form, reflection, and refined simplicity, timeless qualities that continue to define Italian lighting design.
