About the Item
This elegant Glass Flush Mount is a quintessential example of Mid-Century Modern Italian lighting design, attributed to the renowned firm Fontana Arte and dating back to the 1950s.
Characterized by its clean, geometric lines, the fixture features a square profile with a substantial, textured glass diffuser. The glass exhibits a beautiful, hammered or lightly frosted surface texture, which diffuses the light to create a soft, warm, and inviting glow, as seen in the photograph. This textured glass is a signature element often found in Fontana Arte's masterful designs from this period, showcasing their exceptional commitment to glass artistry.
The diffuser is encased in a simple yet stylish metallic frame, likely crafted from polished chrome, brass, or stainless steel, which adds a subtle, industrial-chic contrast to the warmth of the glass. The minimalist profile allows the quality and texture of the glass to take center stage, making it a timeless piece of functional art.
Mounted flush against the wall or ceiling, this fixture is versatile and perfect for adding a touch of sophisticated vintage style to a hallway, bathroom, or living area. It embodies the high-quality craftsmanship and refined aesthetic that made Italian design globally celebrated in the post-war era.
The light requires four E14 light bulbs. Works with US and European electrics 110/120/220V. Very good vintage condition.
Free worldwide express shipping.
