AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This exceptional 1960s Space Age chandelier is a masterclass in mid-century kinetic design. Featuring a polished chrome central "satellite" hub, the lamp suspends three sweeping, orbital arms that create a sense of perpetual motion.
The highlight of the piece is the trio of hand-blown glass globes, each featuring a fine horizontal linear texture (ribbed) that softens the light and adds a rhythmic visual detail. The color story is a sophisticated nod to the era’s palette: a gradient of parchment cream, sun-bleached yellow, and muted apricot. When lit, the "atomic" arrangement casts a warm, atmospheric glow, making it a perfect centerpiece for a vintage-modern interior or a gallery-style dining space.
Period: 1960s – 1970s
Style: Space Age / Atomic / Mid-Century Modern
Materials: Polished Chrome, Ribbed Opaline Glass
Condition: Excellent vintage patina with original structural integrity.
