About the Item
A rare and sculptural 1970s chandelier by Gino Paroldo, featuring a dramatic arrangement of smoked and amber-tinted glass discs around a monumental polished brass frame.
This monumental chandelier by Italian designer Gino Paroldo is an exceptional example of sculptural lighting from the 1970s Italian Modern period.
The chandelier is built around a circular polished brass frame that supports a striking constellation of overlapping smoked and amber-tinted glass discs, creating a rhythmic, almost kinetic visual composition. These layered glass elements capture and diffuse light beautifully, producing a warm and luxurious glow, while the reflective brass adds depth, brilliance, and architectural presence.
Equipped with multiple upward-facing bulbs within brass fittings, the chandelier delivers a radiant play of reflections that emphasizes its sculptural nature. Suspended from three elongated brass rods, the piece feels both airy and substantial — a floating visual statement ideal for grand residential interiors, boutique hotels, galleries, or refined hospitality projects.
Seldom found in this scale and condition, the chandelier exemplifies Paroldo’s experimental elegance and his mastery of bold geometric lighting design.
