AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Italian brass chandelier, crystal and glass rods – circa 1950–1970 – rare spiral design.
Elegant mid-20th-century Italian chandelier, in worked golden brass, characteristic of Italian decorative production between the 1950s and 1970s. The piece features a richly ornamented upper ring from which a cascade of faceted crystals arranged in a spiral creates a continuous visual movement and a deeply sophisticated lighting effect.
The structure combines teardrop crystal pendants, faceted beads, and an impressive lower section composed of glass rods, a element highly valued in Italian design of the time. These glass tubes capture and diffuse light intensely, enhancing the brilliance of the crystals and giving the chandelier a luxurious and theatrical character, typical of the Italian Hollywood Regency style.
The set results in a piece with great presence, ideal for entrances, living rooms, staircases, or spaces that value decorative lighting with history, glamour and artisanal quality.
The condition is very good, with natural patina and signs of age compatible with authenticity.
The light output is magnificent, providing warmth, elegance and glamour!
A very decorative piece.
Note some (not visible) oxidation on the gold finish of the metal.
A true find that will suit any vintage antique or modern decor. Its design will make it a standout piece in any room. Note some oxidation (not visible).
I do not ship outside Europe.
It will be carefully packed and shipped with tracking. Do not worry, I know how to pack this item so it arrives in the best possible condition. The tracking will be updated on your Catawiki purchase page; check regularly to avoid the package being returned to me, in which case the buyer will be responsible for the cost of any additional shipping.
It will be very well packed, but please consider that during transit some pieces may come out of their sockets and will have to be repositioned. It is the buyer’s responsibility to put them back in place. I will send replacement parts.
