Mid-Century Modern German Sputnik Chandelier in Brass and White Glass, 1950s

About the Item

Mid-Century Modern Brass and White Glass Five-Light Sputnik Chandelier, Germany, circa 1950s A striking example of mid-century German design, this Sputnik-style chandelier features five elegantly arched arms in polished brass radiating from a central black enameled hub. Each arm is adorned with a tapered, textured white glass shade with subtle linear detailing, creating a beautifully diffused glow when lit. Crafted circa the 1950s, the chandelier blends sculptural form with functional design. The black and brass color palette offers a timeless sophistication, while the organic, petal-like shades lend a soft, modernist touch. This piece is ideal for adding a refined, architectural focal point to any interior, from minimalist spaces to richly styled retro rooms. The brass elements display a rich, warm patina developed over time, adding character and authenticity to the piece. The white glass shades show minor wear and faint surface marks consistent with age and use, but retain their elegant presence and diffusive quality. • Origin: Germany • Period: Circa 1950s • Style: Mid-Century Modern / Sputnik • Materials: Brass, enameled metal, white textured glass • Lighting: Five sockets for E14 size bulbs • Condition: Good vintage condition. Brass arms show a warm, aged patina; minor wear to glass shades is consistent with age. Dimensions: height: ca 29 cm / 11.41 in; diameter: ca 60 cm / 23.62 in. The light fixture is in complete working order; however, as with all vintage or antique lighting, we always suggest having it installed by a qualified electrician.
