About the Item
This is a mid-century modern Sputnik chandelier, originating from the Space Age period. It features a central, often spherical or slightly elongated, core from which numerous arms or spokes radiate outwards in all directions. These arms are typically made of metal, possibly brass, chrome, or a painted finish.
At the end of many of these arms are light sources, often small bulbs with a pointed or elongated shape, directly evoking the design of the Soviet Sputnik satellite, a key inspiration of the era. Some arms might also be adorned with decorative elements like small spheres or other geometric shapes, further emphasizing the futuristic aesthetic of the time.
The chandelier is suspended from the ceiling by a rod or chain attached to a circular or disc-shaped canopy. The overall aesthetic is dynamic, starburst-like, and highly characteristic of the Space Age design influences that were prominent in the mid-20th century, reflecting the excitement and fascination with space exploration. This particular fixture appears to have a metallic finish and multiple light bulbs distributed around its radiating arms.
