Cubic chandelier designed by Gaetano Sciolari for AV Mazzega, Italy, 1970s

Available and in very good condition with some traces of wear consistent with age and use.

This striking chandelier, designed in the 1970s by the renowned Italian designer Gaetano Sciolari for Mazzega, embodies the bold aesthetic and refined craftsmanship that defined the era. Its geometric, architectural form is a testament to Sciolari’s forward-thinking vision and his ability to blend industrial materials with artistic flair.

The chandelier features five individual cube-shaped Murano glass shades, each a composition of transparent, milky white, and vivid orange glass. These shades showcase Mazzega’s masterful glasswork, with subtle transitions between clarity and opacity, and bursts of color that catch and refract the light in dynamic ways. The variation in texture and hue across the glass gives the chandelier a vibrant, almost sculptural quality.

Suspended from a cubic chromed metal frame, the overall design has a minimalist yet futuristic presence. The clean lines and mirrored finish of the chrome structure contrast elegantly with the organic interplay of the glass elements. The abstract arrangement of the cubes appears almost like a deconstructed skyline or a modernist architectural model, evoking a sense of movement and spatial complexity.

A perfect example of Italian mid-century lighting design, this piece is both a functional light fixture and a work of art—ideal for collectors or those with a taste for statement interiors.
