AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This lamp, with its colored glass spheres (or with different finishes) on brass stems rising from a round base, is a typical example of the Mid-Century Modern or Space Age style, particularly the versions of lamps sometimes called 'bubbles.'
The light filtering through the spheres creates a theatrical and evocative effect, typical of design pieces from that era.
It has a round base with a radius of 26 cm, another almost 30 cm, with a weight of 6/7 kg.
The lamp will be shipped fully disassembled. Each rod has a bolt at the bottom, and each glass ball is threaded onto the rod.
Before shipping, I will take photos and videos that I can send for editing.
The glass balls at the bottom have some chips, as visible in the photo.
A couple of brass screws are missing, and as a result, there are free holes in the base.
The conditions are as shown in the photo; it is purchased based on what is seen.
The future buyer will take care of fixing it or keep it as shown in the photo.
