My new (old) chandeliers arrived today. They are so divine...Vistosi Italian Glass Chandeliers from the 1960s. One of the reasons I have not been writing is that I have been searching for the perfect lights for our living room. It is almost as hard as finding that perfect black dress...you know the one that is divinely elegant, that no one else will be wearing and does not require you to skip eating so as to either afford it or fit into it. Add to that being green and well, it is a challenge...especially in Australia where there are not many 20th Century design stores (the 60s were really and incredible era for design!). So I was over the moon when I found these at Mondo Trasho in Melbourne..especially when I heard their name "Italian Icicle Chandeliers".
OK, so I had to have them shipped up...but I think that more than offsets buying something new which would have been shipped from who knows where...plus I love wondering where these lights were before...So, while it took a lot of time to find, I now have my perfect LBD lights which are also so glamorously green. Would love to hear about other favourite green finds for the home. Looking for the perfect rug now...xxx

OMG they are divine. And so is Mondo Trasho's website.... Well after I just about had a heart attack with the sound effects on their landing page (I personally hate sound on websites but maybe I am boring?!).
Oh wow how pretty! What is LBD?
Beautiful find!!I am inspired as I am looking for one myself, Thank you for the great post!
