Description from the seller

Italian 1950s pendant lamp in brass and frosted glass, decorated – Vintage Mid-Century

Elegant and scenographic Italian-made pendant lamp dating from the 1950s, characterized by a refined structure in worked brass and a striking cylindrical diffuser in frosted glass, enhanced by delicate laser-engraved radiating motifs. The metal frame features harmonious swirls and ornamental scrolls, typical of the Italian decorative taste of the period, which frame the lampshade with great lightness. The upper and lower details are particularly refined, finished with turned and decorative elements that give the lamp an elegant presence without weighing down its line.

The frosted glass diffuses the light softly and envelopingly, while the geometric engravings create interesting light patterns when the lamp is on. The pairing of the opaline white glass with the warm brass tones makes this piece extremely versatile, ideal in a classic setting as well as as a contrasting element in contemporary, eclectic or Mid-Century interiors.

An authentic vintage Italian furnishing accessory, capable of becoming the focal point of an entrance hall, a living area, a bedroom, or a reception space.

Dimensions:
Total height, including the chain: about 72 cm
Diameter of the lampshade: about 23 cm

A piece with strong decorative charm, particularly of interest to collectors and enthusiasts of Italian 20th-century lighting and vintage design.
Original electrical system from the era to be revised, not tested because it no longer complies with safety standards.

The item will be carefully packed, with particular attention to protecting the glass and decorative parts, and shipped with trackable shipping.
