Pendant Lamp Attributed To Toni Zuccheri For A.v. Mazzega, Italy, 1970s

Chairish

$3,698

with its ice-like texture and amber-hued inclusions, this pendant lamp evokes the quiet elegance of 1970s Murano glass lighting. Suspended from a fine wire system with a black spiral cord, it demonstrates a thoughtful blend of raw surface texture and refined craftsmanship. Design Composed of three thick, clear glass panels joined by chromed bolts, the lamp’s shade resembles a floating cube. Each pane carries a sculptural mass of fused amber glass, resembling natural resin or molten lava. The contrast between the rugged surface and the warm, almost geological bursts of colour creates a compelling visual effect when illuminated. Light diffuses softly through the dappled glass, while the amber inclusions create areas of glow and shadow. Though unsigned, the work strongly recalls the hand of Tony Zuccheri, known for experimenting with expressive organic forms during his time at Mazzega. Zuccheri’s lamps often played with tension between natural references and formal geometry; a quality clearly seen in this piece. The use of textured moulded glass and visible hardware aligns with the vocabulary of Italian lighting design of the period, which embraced artisanal processes and sculptural qualities. Condition The lamp is in very good vintage condition. The glass panels are free from chips or cracks. The hardware shows minimal age-related wear, like some rust. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution, Up to 250V (Europe/UK Standard).The wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
