AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Hanging chandelier attributable to Fontana Arte in the style of Max Ingrand, period 1958/1962.
The chandelier is completely intact and complete with its original glass.
The structure features a circular geometric radiating architectural layout, designed to distribute the weight of 8 thick radial glass plates.
Characterized by the famous "green thread" visible by cut (Fontana Arte’s hallmark for crystal of exceptional thickness), they present a fascinating hand-smoothed fin/foil shaping.
Each individual plate is pre-drilled and inserted into the metallic supports and secured by horizontal through pins.
The central single-lamp configuration emphasizes the piece: the only light source diffuses through the surrounding crystals, creating a timeless atmosphere.
Measurements:
70 cm h, diameter 22 cm (Iron)
Total width 28 cm
Excellent vintage condition, patina consistent with its age authenticating its era. Crystals sound.
Coming from an important villa in the Western Milanese area
A luminous work of art of great collectible value, ready to embellish exclusive interiors.
Shipping with rigid packing and insurance!
