Description from the seller

Fascinating Italian-made vintage pendant chandelier dating to the 1970s, featuring an original geometric, sculptural design typical of the Space Age style.
The structure is made of polished chrome-plated metal, with a cylindrical central body from which radial arms and distinctive shaped reflective elements extend, giving the chandelier an architectural, futuristic appearance.
Its defining feature is the four shades made of thick, clear art glass, with a striking irregular, undulating texture and amber-colored edges. The unusual shape of the glass resembles large stylized flowers and creates evocative plays of light and reflections.
The chandelier is completed by a substantial chrome chain made up of large circular links, a decorative detail perfectly in keeping with 1970s design.
A vintage lighting piece with strong visual impact, ideal for modern spaces, lofts, Mid-Century interiors, and thoughtfully curated furnishings.
