Antique Florentine hanging lamp ceiling light fixture lamp ceiling lamp with porcelain roses – handcrafted, hand-forged handmade shabby chic, Italy

For sale is an enchanting floral pendant lamp in the romantic Florentine style, from Italy. This decorative piece combines exquisite craftsmanship with the timeless charm of classic vintage aesthetics – a true gem for collectors, lovers of Mediterranean designs, or shabby-chic interiors.

The chandelier is made of intricately crafted metal, painted in an elegant, lightly patinated gold tone. The design is inspired by floral Art Nouveau: numerous leaves, curved tendrils, and large, colorful flowers adorn the frame in elaborate handwork. The blossoms in shades of pink, red, and yellow are made of porcelain and hand-painted—each one a unique piece.

This hanging lamp features an intricately designed, three-dimensional rose arrangement made of metal, delicately crafted and painted in soft tones. The frame is made of hand-bent, patinated, hand-forged iron, finished in the typical Florentine style with an antique-white paint—intentionally applied unevenly to create an authentic 'Shabby Chic' effect.

The stylized leaves and tendrils are three-dimensionally shaped, with slightly oxidized surfaces and beautiful patina. However, the highlight is the intricately embedded porcelain flowers in pastel shades – predominantly pink, old pink, cream white, and gentle yellow. Each of these blooms is a unique piece, lovingly hand-formed and painted – typical of Florentine lighting fixtures from the post-war period.

In the center sits a single lamp socket (E27), surrounded by delicate metal tendrils and roses. The lamp is mounted on the ceiling and can also be hung a bit lower. With one socket: 1 x E27 (standard size).

Such floral lamps are now rare and highly sought after — especially in such good condition. The combination of metal, Florentine patina, and delicate flowers is typical of the floral design movement of the 1950s in Italy. Similar pieces regularly fetch high sale prices on international platforms.


Condition: Corresponds to age, excellently preserved, functional. Patina and small paint chips are intentional in the shabby style. The lamp socket is slightly broken/damaged at the edge but not noticeable. These minor flaws are not apparent in the overall ensemble over time. This can be seen in the last photo.
