Contrappeso Due 3-Arm Brass Chandelier

About the Item

Named after the Italian word for counterweight, this chandelier creates a delicate balance of natural solid brass elements ending on one side with a double aluminum shade hand-painted in a charming sage color that evokes the elegance of mid-century design. The three arms maintain a horizontal position thanks to polished brass ends. Each shade is 27.5 cm high carrying two bulbs and can be directed so that the brightest light falls on a dining table or entryway, while the top diffuses a delicate ambient light. Color and sizes can be changed upon request, please ask the Concierge for details.

  • Quadriennale 4 Arms Brass Chandelier, Twin Shades, Contrappeso, 4 Hues of Blue
    By Silvio Piattelli
    Located in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, Florence
    The chandelier takes inspiration from the renowned light fixtures created by Italian mid-century modern studios Arteluce and Stilnovo in the 1950s, particularly Angelo Lelii's Triennale lamp. However, it introduces a unique and exclusive design aspect through the implementation of four different hues of blue on each shade. These color variations create a delicate contrast between each arm, imparting a modern flair to the overall aesthetic. This chandelier features four counterbalanced arms that can be moved up and down and also slightly lateral movement. With its pivoting shades, this chandelier effortlessly distributes light throughout the room. The upper shades contribute to ambient lighting, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the lower shades provide task and direct lighting. Each arm has a counterweight in the same color of the opposite shade. There are infinitive positions for this chandelier and the crossing design of the arms are creating a distinctive appeal. The shades themselves are meticulously crafted from spun aluminum and the distinctive line of small holes preserves the authentic mid-century aesthetic. Each shade consists of two separate cones, with a candelabra socket on the smaller cone and a regular socket on the larger lower dome-shaped shade. The chandelier's arms and body are in solid brass lightly polished yet intentionally left unprotected to allow the natural patina to develop over time. Crafted by our specialized workshop dedicated to mid-century modern design, every aspect of this fixture is meticulously considered. The finish and appearance are carefully matched to the rare lamps of the 1950s that served as inspiration. The term "Quadriennale '' is a play on words. It originated from Angelo Lelii's "Triennale chandelier...
