Description from the seller
A vintage ceiling lamp from the 1970s by Massive Belgium, though Philips is also referenced. The lamp is almost completely made of plastic.
The inner shade is made of a fairly soft plastic in milky white. The top part is conical and the lower part has a vertically ribbed pattern on the outside.
The classic dome-shaped outer shade is made of transparent gray-lavender hard plastic, possibly acrylic. Despite its grayish color, it glows much warmer, toward caramel “smoked glass.” The outer form simply but effectively rests on the widest rim of the inner shade.
The suspension system consists of a wedge-shaped metal bracket. The design is such that it clamps in the upper edge of the inner shade. The E27 socket is attached to this holder.
75 W. is the recommendation on the original sticker, but atmospheric LED is a better option. Not included.
A smoked transparent bulging shade over it. The lampshade shows light signs of use on the Plexiglas, which is typical for the material, but not distracting for this real eyecatcher.
Two small cracks are at the top in the outer shade. They hardly stand out and are unimportant for the construction.
