About the Item
Elegant Italian Mid-Century Modern chandelier attributed to Fontana Arte, dating from the late 1950s to 1960s. The fixture presents a refined radial composition of curved glass elements arranged in a floral, petal-like form around a central brass structure, exemplifying the brand’s balance between architectural clarity and decorative restraint.
The chandelier features a patinated brass hub with precisely engineered arms supporting slender, shaped glass blades that act as both diffusers and visual elements. When illuminated, the interplay between glass and metal produces a sculptural light effect, casting subtle reflections and layered shadows.
The clean geometry, refined materials, and emphasis on light as an architectural medium are consistent with Fontana Arte’s design language during the postwar modernist period.
The chandelier has been rewired and is in good vintage condition, showing minor age-appropriate wear to the brass and glass consistent with its period and use.
A sophisticated statement piece well suited for dining rooms, living areas, or refined modern interiors seeking authentic Italian mid-century lighting design.
