Monumental Barovier & Toso Oval Flush Mount Murano Glass Ceiling Light, 20th Сen

A stunning example of mid-century Italian craftsmanship, this monumental oval flush mount ceiling light by Barovier & Toso is a masterclass in Murano glass artistry. Designed and produced in Murano, Italy, this luxurious fixture features a rich composition of hand-blown glass flowers in an intricate, densely layered arrangement, showcasing the legendary skill of the Barovier & Toso glassmakers.Executed in a radiant pastel palette—soft pinks, greens, yellows, and clear crystal—the individually sculpted floral elements shimmer with gold-flecked inclusions and delicate ribbing, creating a captivating interplay of light and texture. The overall design evokes a lush bouquet or a blossoming garden, making it both a functional lighting piece and a sculptural work of art.The generously scaled oval form makes this plafon particularly rare and desirable, ideal for grand interiors or statement spaces such as formal entryways, dining rooms, or elegant retail settings. The fixture diffuses a warm, inviting glow while remaining visually striking even when unlit.

Dan Mask from Ivory Coast, Africa, 1950

Dan Mask from Ivory Coast, Africa, 1950

This very elegant Dan mask is well-proportioned with a long protruding mouth from Ivory Coast, Africa. It dates back to the 1950s. The base is included in the price.Dan masks have been documented as the embodiment of at least a dozen artistic personalities. Among these are Deangle, who ventures into the village from the initiation camps to ask women for food; Tankagle and Bagle, who entertain through a range of aesthetically pleasing dances, skits, and mimes; Bugle, who historically leads men into battle; and Gunyege, whose mask is worn by a communitys champion foot racers in competitions. The present example might be identified as Gunyege; once they are divorced from their performance contexts, however, mask forms are difficult to identify.
