Description from the seller

Mid-Century Modern Chandelier - Brass & Opaline Glass - Italian Design 1950s/60s

Elegant three-light chandelier in complete Mid-Century Modern style, dating from the 1950s/60s. The frame is made of brass with a beautiful original patina, enriched by refined carved wooden side arms that give the piece a warmth typical of Scandinavian and Italian design of the era.
The three oval diffusers are made of satin opaline glass, designed to provide warm and soft light.
- Dimensions: height 85 cm, diameter 50 cm. Glass dimensions: 15 x 10 cm.
- Condition: the metal frame and the wooden parts are in excellent vintage condition. The electrical system is original to the period and functioning.
- Technical note: one of the glass pieces has a very tiny chip on the lower edge. The defect is millimetric and, once hung, practically invisible.
- Shipping: The chandelier will be partially disassembled to ensure maximum safety. The glasses will be individually packed with multi-layer protection.
Original electrical system, functioning. E14 bulb holder.

Please carefully view the photo gallery, which is an integral part of the description, to avoid any misunderstandings.
Careful packaging and shipping with tracking.

Seller's Story

For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era. Every piece I select has something that catches my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual aspect, or simply that detail that makes it unique. I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen. I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible. Selling on this Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
