About the Item

This exceptional and elegant Fontana Arte- style diamond-shaped chandelier is a stunning example of mid-century Italian luxury lighting. The piece features eight exquisitely hand-cut, faceted triangular glass panels, each tinted to create a warm, atmospheric glow. Arranged vertically around a gilded brass frame, the glass radiates with sculptural elegance, transforming light into a refined architectural presence. Attributed to designer Gino Paroldo—a creator celebrated for his sophisticated use of brass and finely crafted glass during his collaborations with the Italian firm Dino Dei—this chandelier embodies the elevated craftsmanship and design innovation that defined Italian lighting in the 1950s. Paroldo’s work is known for its distinctive combination of sculptural geometry, premium materials, and timeless modernist sensibility. The internal structure of gilded brass holds three small E14 light fittings Dimensions without the stem; height 36, diameter 45.
