New Pamono Murano Glass Chandelier attributed to Ercole Barovier, 1930s

Barovier & Toso Rare Murano glass chandelier, attributed to Ercole Barovier (1889-1974), datable to the 1920s/’30s. The metal frame supports a dense composition of hand-blown and embossed transparent glass circular elements, which generate an elegant floral effect and diffuse a warm and precious light. This specimen is part of the Murano Deco production of the early twentieth century, a period in which Barovier experimented with geometric and floral motifs obtained through molding and innovative techniques for the time.

Some decorative glass elements (about 7-8 pieces) were missing. They were faithfully reconstructed using silicone rubber molds made from the originals and then cast in transparent micro-resin. The intervention, documented photographically, preserved the chandelier’s aesthetic and structural integrity while distinguishing the resin inserts from the originals without altering the overall reading.
