Nastro Chandelier by Andromeda

Nastro is really a face of Italian company Andromeda. It’s a typical example of a brilliant idea in practice. The chandelier is made of thin, narrow strips of Murano glass.

You can easily change the shape of this lighting fixture turning strips in different directions.The chandelier is available in different colors and sizes, but every piece of this collection is still on-of-a-kind as it’s made by drawings of Gianluca Vecchi, the owner of the company.

I MORI Chandelier - Fresh Word in Murano Glass Traditions

Recently Murano Glass experiences a re-birth of popularity it used to have in Renaissance times when Venice was one of the strongest states in Europe. For all these centuries the craftsmen tried to follow strict patterns in design of the lighting fixtures that were leaving Murano island. Even recently it was difficult to find a lighting fixture that wasn’t made in a traditional Venetian style. Now many Italian companies started experimenting with the forms of Murano glass. Look at this I Mori chandelier. The pendants are quite traditional in shape and color, but their arrangement is totally modern and unexpected.
