DUTIES FREE A monumental statement piece from late twentieth-century Italy: a four-tier chandelier featuring 80 large hand-blown corteccia clear glass tubes suspended from a polished nickel armature. The architectural silhouette - broad, layered, luminous - commands any grand interior, from double-height living rooms and hotel lobbies to historic palazzi and contemporary loft spaces. The structure is crafted in nickel-plated metal with a mirror-polished finish that reflects and amplifies the light passing through each glass element. At approximately 60 kg, this is a serious collectible fixture made to be the centerpiece of a room. Each of the 80 corteccia tubes is individually hand-blown in the Venetian tradition; no two are identical. The bark-textured surface of the glass scatters light in a warm, organic pattern across walls and ceilings.
