This is a prime example of the high quality, early work produced by Fontana Arte during their first years.

Fontana Arte is an iconic Italian lighting company known for its innovative and elegant creations, and this pendant is a testament to their craftsmanship and artistic vision. The pendant features a combination of brass and curved glass elements, creating a sophisticated and timeless look. The central part of the pendant is crafted from brass, which was a popular material choice during the 1940s due to its durability and luxurious appeal. The glass diffuses the light in a soft and ambient manner, adding warmth and charm to the space it illuminates.
The pendant is designed to be suspended from the ceiling with a brass rod, enhancing its visual presence and creating a focal point in any room.
