AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large unique ceiling lamp in the shape of an artichoke.
The lamp consists of an opaline glass shade mounted on a metal fixture.
The porcelain fitting was broken and has been replaced with a modern fitting.
A small section of the edge of the glass is slightly damaged; I applied a thin layer of two-component adhesive there to reduce the sharpness a bit. See the last two photos.
The glass still has its normal strength, and the repair is hidden under the ceiling cap.
The back of the ceiling panel shows signs of aging.
Despite the above points, I find the lamp to be in good condition.
The height is 32 cm, and the cross-section is 32 cm.
I can’t trace the lamp back, so its provenance and age are unknown to me.
