Description from the seller

Pair of Swirl-style glass table lamps, 20th century

Main description
Pair of table lamps with decorative glass shades, featuring a hemispherical shape and a swirl motif created by colored filaments embedded in the glass mass.
The lamp shades are paired with metal bases finished in dark-bronze/brass, with a sober and well-proportioned design, typical of European production in the second half of the 20th century.
The lamps are designed as a coordinated pair for decorative and interior design use.
The understated yet dramatic design, together with the quality of the materials, makes these lamps particularly suitable for both modern interiors and vintage or mid-century settings.
The diffusion of light is warm and enveloping, enhanced by the satin finish of the glass and by the spiral decoration, applied hot.
