AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Mid-century Modern Glass and Brass "Saturn" Pendant Lamp
A magnificent Space Age pendant lamp produced in Sweden during the 1960s.
The fixture is designed in a "Saturn" shape, characterized by a central opal glass globe encircled by a large golden-toned metal disc that creates a fantastic planetary silhouette.
This disc acts as both a decorative element and a reflector, directing light downwards.
The upper gallery is made of marching gold-toned metal with vertical ventilation slats, and the top of the glass globe has golden rings that connect everything together in a celestial design.
Measurements:
Height without cord: approx. 28 cm
Height with cord: approx. 70 cm
Total Diameter: approx. 33 cm
Glass diameter: approx. 21 cm
Condition:
The lamp is in great vintage condition and works perfectly. The gallery has light scratches, as shown in the close-up photos. The large metal disc looks very nice with light surface wear.
The opal glass globe is intact without cracks or chips. The wiring is original.
Overall, a great looking mid-century Space Age lamp in a good size that looks amazing.
Please take a good look at the photos, which are an integral part of the description.
This lot will be carefully packed so it will get to its new owner exactly as it should.
