About the Item
A beautiful Art Deco chandelier from the 1940s, crafted in Italy in chrome-plated metal and opaline glass with six lights.
This elegant piece beautifully reflects the spirit of its time — a moment when modern design began to balance precision and warmth. The chrome structure gives the chandelier a sense of architectural clarity, while the six opaline glass globes add softness and light. Their gentle curves and milky glow create a striking contrast with the metal’s polished surface, giving the piece a luminous, sculptural presence.
At the center, a larger cylindrical diffuser anchors the composition, distributing a warm, even light that enhances its harmonious geometry. The overall design feels both rational and poetic, expressing that uniquely Italian interpretation of Art Deco: modern, functional, and quietly sophisticated.
The chandelier is in excellent condition, with glass elements showing no particular defects, and only minor oxidation to the metal consistent with age. The original electrical system is in perfect working order, and rewiring to American standards can be provided upon request.
