Saint Germain Venetian crystal chandelier with 7 golden branches, by Barovier&Toso

There is something both classic and contemporary about the design of the chandeliers in the Saint Germain series, in this case the 7-light chandelier in gilded Venetian crystal and black and gold cylindrical shades. The model is a star with 7 arms at right angles, in the form of crystal tubes encrusted with gold flakes, on which the cylindrical shades are perched to channel the light. Each arm is fitted with a stylised bowl-shaped basin in clear crystal and a gilded metal sheath. The central structure is made of crystal around a gold finished metal tube. Note the detail of the crystal sphere, the seed that marks the base of the candlestick stringing, made using the 'sommerso gold' technique. Entirely handmade, the model is an example of the high quality of the work of the master glassmakers of Barovier & Toso, whose international reputation is rooted in the perpetuation of artisanal traditions since the 13th century.
