1960s Fazzoletto Lamp | By La Murrina

An exceptionally rare Fazzoletto table lamp by La Murrina, this remarkable piece is a celebration of Murano's centuries-old glassmaking tradition. Handcrafted by master glassmakers, it is best understood as a functional sculpture rather than a conventional lighting object, showcasing the extraordinary skill required to transform molten glass into a form that appears as soft and fluid as draped fabric.

Comprising two individually hand-blown glass elements, the lamp is enriched with delicate air bubbles and subtle opalescent detailing that ripple gracefully through both the body and shade. The name Fazzoletto—Italian for "handkerchief"—refers to the lamp's elegant, flowing silhouette, where the glass appears to fold and fall like fabric despite being entirely solid, a feat achievable only through the exceptional craftsmanship of Murano artisans.

Designed with a dual-light system, the lamp allows the bulbs within the sculptural glass body and beneath the shade to be operated independently, offering the flexibility to create layered illumination or a soft ambient glow to suit the setting.

Founded in the 1960s as a small Murano furnace producing limited hand-blown glass works, La Murrina has become internationally renowned for combining traditional Venetian craftsmanship with refined contemporary design. Every piece reflects a dedication to artistry, innovation and the enduring legacy of Murano glass.

Both a collector's piece and an elegant source of light, the Fazzoletto lamp brings together sculpture, craftsmanship and atmosphere, making it equally at home in contemporary, mid-century and classic interiors.
