AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Vintage cascading chandelier with clear and frosted glass pendants, spiral design.

Italian vintage chandelier, composed of a cut-out gold-toned frame and an impressive cascade of glass pendants arranged in a spiral. On the exterior hoop are the compact clear pendants, in thick molded glass, responsible for the strongest shine and crystalline reflections.

Inside the piece appear the hollow frosted pendants, lighter and more delicate, which diffuse the light softly and create an elegant contrast between transparency and opacity. Each pendant bears small natural variations from the manufacturing process, typical of artisanal productions of the 70s.

The spiral design gives the chandelier a unique visual movement: from each side you see a different composition, with the light gliding along the transparent rods and softening on the frosted rods, creating depth and a continuous cascading effect. It is a piece that stands out both lit and unlit, functioning as a central decorative element.

Because the pendants are so fragile, they will be removed for transport and it is the buyer's responsibility to reinstall them. But don’t worry, they will be clearly labelled and easy to relocate. I will provide replacements.

I do not ship outside Europe.

It will be packed with great care and sent with tracking. Don’t worry, I know how to package this item so that it arrives to you in the best condition. The tracking will be updated on your Catawiki purchase page; please 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.
