- $2100 Giogali @DWR

- $299 Z Gallerie Version
As always, I acknowledge the sin against art when I feature knock-offs. Moving on…
For those, like myself, who have always loved the gorgeous Giogali chandelier, your bargain has arrived. Designed by the Italian architect Angelo Mangiarotti in 1967, it is a timeless classic. Z Gallerie has taken it upon themselves to create their own version for only $299. No, these are not handblown Murano glass links…if they were, it wouldn’t cost only $299! That said, I saw one in store and it does cast beautiful light through the glass much like the original does.
