Grey Cipolla pendant designed by Massimo Vignelli at the start of his impressive career in design and executed by Murano glass specialist Venini.

The model has been produced in two different sizes. This is the smaller version with a diameter of 34 cm / 13.4 inches. This grey Cipolla pendant has been rewired with 2 m high-end quality, black fabric cord—for safety and beauty.
