AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Italian-made pendant lamp by Targetti Sankey (historic Tuscan lighting company, founded in 1928), dating from the 1970s.
The shade consists of a large clear blown glass dome, egg-shaped, which diffuses light softly and evenly. The upper fitting is made of chrome-plated metal/aluminum, with a swiveling conical connector that allows for slight adjustment of the shade's angle relative to the suspension cord.
The original lamp holder bears the label "Targetti Sankey – Made in Italy", indicating a maximum power of 60W (E27 socket).
Particularly interesting is the adjustable "Rolly" height-adjuster mechanism (visible on the green component, dated 1974), a tension-based rise-and-fall device typical of Italian production of the period, which allows the power cord to be easily lengthened or shortened to adapt the lamp's height to the room, with no tools required.
