AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Original Art Deco style chandelier from the 1930s. The design is defined by the geometric, streamlined metal structure and the marbled or powder pink opaline glass shades, which are very typical of the era. Similar, rare pieces often come from French or Central European workshops.
Lamp Features
Style: Art Deco / Functionalism (France, 1930s).
Materials: High-quality cast and drawn metal frame with chrome-plated light, brass (or wood-covered) inserts and decorative copper screws.
Shades: Special, spherical, marbled opaline glass (also known as “marbled glass”) shades that provide a soft, atmospheric light.
Design: Geometric, vertical structure that reflects the mechanized, modern aesthetic of the era.
It is in absolutely flawless condition, the metal shows in a couple of places that time has passed over it, it is more matte. It is still extremely decorative and a wonderful collector's item.
