AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

DESCRIPTION IN ENGLISH:
Splendid and elegant vintage lamp produced by Sothys, which can be used both as a ceiling light and as a large wall light. This model dates back to the Mid-Century Modernist period (1960s/1970s) and is a sought-after design piece thanks to the exceptional quality of its materials and craftsmanship.
The lamp features a solid hexagonal structure in polished gold-plated brass encasing splendid panels of thick, beveled clear glass. The handcrafted grinding along the edges of the glass panes captures and refracts light exceptionally well, creating brilliant reflections and unique luminous prisms throughout the surrounding space.
At the center of the structure, the reflective base plate amplifies the visual effect of the three radially oriented light points. A truly classy lighting piece, with a luxurious, geometric impact, perfect for period interiors, modern antiques, or contemporary design contexts.

Technical Specifications

• Style: Mid-Century Modern, Modernist, Hollywood Regency

Excellent vintage condition. The brass frame retains its beautiful gilding and original luster. The beveled glass panels are in impeccable condition, completely intact, with no cracks or chips. The three-light electrical system is original, intact, and fully functional. Ready for installation.
Aware of the fragility of glass and the weight of the item, I ensure ultra-protected professional packaging with bubble wrap, polystyrene, and reinforced cardboard. I personally guarantee that the ceiling light will arrive at its destination completely intact and without any risk of breakage. Fast and 100% tracked shipping.
