Clear baloton cristallo glass table light with gold frame [43274]
A delightfully pretty clear Murano crystal table lantern with a ‘baloton’ finish and twisted gold wire frame, made entirely by hand on the famous glass-making island of Murano in the Venetian lagoon.
The hot blown-glass is stamped with a special ‘baloton’ mould by the Muranese glass-master to create a raised criss-cross pattern. This is a very typical Murano glass-making design which dates back as far as the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and is still very popular today.
This enchanting lantern is part of a collection which includes a mix of table, wall and pendant lighting, all with the same finish. Please contact us if you would like photos of its product family.
We are also able to offer you a smaller version, measuring 33 centimetres in height. Please contact us if you would like further information or a price.
This piece may bear some tiny imperfection that will attest to its having been fashioned entirely by hand, thus increasing its value and uniqueness. It is based on a historical design and has been crafted using purely traditional techniques.
