About the Item

This exquisite French midcentury chandelier by to LUNEL, Paris, France, from the 1950s, is a stunning example of vintage lighting design. Known for its iconic ostrich egg shape, this chandelier features six lights and is crafted from a combination of brass, metal, lucite, plastic, and glass, creating a striking contrast of materials. Its design is of the same period as celebrated lighting companies like Arlus and Stilnovo, making it a highly desirable piece for collectors of midcentury modern lighting. With a height of 33 inches (84 cm), the chandelier can be easily shortened to suit your space, while its generous diameter of 30.3 inches (77 cm) makes it a bold statement piece in any room. The chandelier is in very good condition, maintaining the quality and elegance typical of midcentury design. LUNEL, a prestigious lighting publisher, is traditionally associated with the modern movement, creating pieces that echo the innovative works of early French designers. Their use of lacquered tubular metal and brass became synonymous with the refined, minimalist aesthetic that defines midcentury modern lighting. LUNEL’s designs are known for their formal elegance, simplicity, and timeless appeal, making them highly sought-after by collectors. This chandelier is delivered fully wired and ready for use in your country (US, UK, EU, Australia, China, etc.), and it is compatible with LED bulbs for modern, energy-efficient lighting. This rare and beautiful piece will add a sophisticated touch to any space, embodying the essence of midcentury modern design with a nod to French craftsmanship.
