Pendant in Smoked Glass and Brass

Pendant, in brass and glass, Europe, 1970s

Pendant with brass fixture and gold colored raindrop glass. The glass, which is called Pulegoso contains numerous bubbles of all sizes. Not surprisingly, the word pulega translated from Italian to bubble. This effect is achieved by adding bicarbonate of soda, gasoline, or other substances to the glass melt. The canopy, stern and fixture are executed in brass and show an admirable patina.
