Italian mid-century pendant lamp in brass and opal glass with a satin cylindrical diffuser, dating from the 1950s, with two brass fittings and dimensions of about 72 cm in height and 23 cm in diameter, in good used condition and not in working order.
Description from the seller
Italian 1950s pendant lamp in brass and satin glass, vintage Mid-Century
Elegant and scenographic pendant lamp of Italian manufacture dating from the 1950s, characterized by a refined brass worked structure and a suggestive cylindrical diffuser in satin glass, enhanced by delicate radiating incised motifs.
The metal frame features harmonious curls and ornamental volutes, typical of the decorative taste of the period in Italy, which frame the lampshade with great lightness. The upper and lower details are particularly refined, completed by turned and decorative elements that give the lamp an elegant presence without weighing down its silhouette.
The satin glass diffuses 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 tones of brass makes this piece extremely versatile, ideal both in a classical setting and as a contrasting element in contemporary, eclectic, or Mid-Century interiors.
An authentic Italian vintage furnishing accessory, capable of becoming the focal point of an entry, a living area, a bedroom, or a representative space.
Dimensions:
Overall height, including the chain: about 72 cm
Diameter of the lampshade: about 23 cm
A piece with strong decorative charm, particularly interesting for collectors and enthusiasts of Italian 20th-century lighting and vintage design.
Original electrical system from the era to be reviewed, not tested as it no longer complies with safety standards.
The item will be carefully packed, with special attention to protecting the glass and decorative parts, and shipped with tracked delivery.
