AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Wonderful 1960s Sputnik-style wall lamps with three lights each. Brass construction with a central sphere, three colored aluminum lamp holders, and five brass rods with colored Bakelite balls, I believe. The lamps retain their original patina, original wiring, and are functional. The lamps show signs of age; the cones have been cleaned and polished. It is recommended to use bulbs that are either white or transparent LED filament.
