Venetian Murano chandeliers
Our collection of chandeliers
We specialise in the purchase, restoration and sale of chandeliers, and more specifically Venetian chandeliers. Curiously, Belgium abounds with pieces from Murano, the island neighbouring Venice where the art of glass has been handed down for more than a thousand years, in keeping with jealously preserved traditions.
Each element is blown, stretched, cut and shaped by hand by master glassmakers, whose craft is guided by exacting standards and precision. This delicate beauty also makes these chandeliers fragile: over time, certain pieces break, disappear or lose their lustre, leaving many chandeliers incomplete.
We work with Venetian artisans who are still able today to recreate rare models, adapt missing elements to their period, and bring back to life lighting fixtures once deemed beyond repair.
Whether your antique chandelier is in perfect condition or requires major restoration, we support you: appraisal, conservation, sourcing parts, or complete restoration—always with a bespoke approach.
the Rezzonico model
The Rezzonico chandelier is one of the emblems of Venetian refinement. Created for the Ca’ Rezzonico palace on the Grand Canal, it is distinguished by an internal metal structure covered with blown-glass elements: scrolls, flowers, leaves and delicately stretched stems.
Both spectacular and light, this Murano chandelier is designed for spacious rooms such as staircases, entrance halls and large salons, where it reveals its full theatricality. A true suspended garden of glass, it embodies the virtuosity of the great Venetian chandeliers.
classic Venetian chandelier
Unlike the Rezzonico, the classic Venetian chandelier is built on blown-glass arms, with no visible metal structure. Its more pared-back silhouette highlights the purity of the glass and the flow of light.
Whether coloured or colourless, ornate or more restrained, this type of antique chandelier integrates elegantly into both historic and contemporary interiors, bringing clarity and visual lightness.
20th-century models
The 20th century marks a period of innovation in Murano. Master glassmakers collaborated with designers and architects to accompany the evolution of styles: Art Nouveau, Art Deco, then Mid-Century Modern.
Floral motifs, pronounced geometry and clean lines characterise these 20th-century antique chandeliers, which combine creativity, innovation and technical excellence while remaining faithful to the heritage of Venetian glass.
Drop-prism chandeliers — Sculpted light
From the 17th century onwards, the drop-prism chandelier became one of the great hallmarks of European decorative art. Cut crystal, pressed glass or rock crystal: materials multiplied, but one principle remained—to break up light and transform it into brilliance.
Each pendant, each prism, each droplet captures the slightest light source and releases it as a shower of reflections. These antique drop-prism chandeliers bring a unique interplay of shadow and brightness, capable of transforming an interior—even when unlit.
Today, they retain a timeless charm and work equally well in a classic setting as in a contemporary environment, where they become the centrepiece.
Choosing the right chandelier
A chandelier is never too large, but it can be too small. In a suitable space, daring to go larger allows the chandelier to express its full aesthetic potential. We advise you on choosing the ideal size according to the room’s volume, ceiling height and circulation.
We can assist you with:
choosing the style best suited to your interior
the appraisal and purchase of authentic antique chandeliers
restoring incomplete models
secure packaging and international delivery
Because a chandelier is never chosen by chance: it is a luminous sculpture, an architectural statement.
Restorations & reconstructions
Time weakens the glass, dulls the gilding and scatters the pendants. We work with Venetian artisans and specialised workshops capable of reconstructing or restoring the most delicate antique chandeliers. Even an incomplete chandelier can regain all its original splendour. Each restoration is carried out in keeping with period techniques and authentic materials.
