Pair of Hand-Blown Murano Glass Candelabra by Pauly & Co, 1940s

Sale price€2.400,00

From the historical icon, Pauly & Co Shop in St Marks Square, this pair of hand-blown 1940s Murano Glass Candelabra are still in perfect condition and are signed Pauly & Co on the base. An extremely rare find, these ornate candelabra are perfect for a grand dining table or mantlepiece.

Provenance. Somewhere on Murano, behind an unmarked door, an old furnace keeps a warehouse of unopened boxes. A dear friend recently took me to this top secret location and inside, we found what Venice forgot: one‑off Murano coupes, flutes and candelabra and decanters. Inside each box were the forgotten pieces from Venice’s great glass houses: small remainders from closed furnaces and shops, carefully wrapped and then abandoned. Sitting on the cement floor, we unwrapped them one by one. Each parcel revealed a single hand‑blown coupe, prosecco flute, candelabra, decanter or aperitivo glass – no pairs, no sets, just lone masterpieces. 

Dimensions: H33cm x W32cm x D17cm
