Willy Daro Style Brass Flowers Ceiling or Wall Light by Massive Lighting

About the Item

Brass flowers ceiling or wall light in the style of designer Willy Daro manufactured by 'Massive Lighting,' circa 1970s, Belgian. Thoroughly cleaned respecting the antique patina, newly rewired and earthed, in full working order and ready to use. Light bulbs included. This decorative large sculptural light consists of a pair of brass plated flowers on a bar and circular base of the same finish. Each individual flower is made up of six quality cast naturalistic textured leaves. The golden tone reflects a warm light creating depth and interesting reflections. The centre of each light is finished playfully with a brass lamp holder perfect for a decorative Gold Crown light bulb as in the photographs. These bulbs reflect the light on the frame which enhances the texture and mood. Each 'flower' separates into two sections; a central ring with three leaves stack together to create a flower with six leaves. The top outer ring is cleverly designed for the stem of the leaves to overlap the lower ring thereby adding stability and creating a continuous form. These parts of the flowers are held together by a metal ring that screws at the top of the brass lamp holder. Each individual light carries one large standard screw light bulb (E27) up to 60 watts. This light is presently fitted with Gold Crown light bulbs of 60 Watts, as photographed. These bulbs are included in this price. Replacements are easy to purchase in most lighting shops or over the internet. Alternatively it is possible to use other E27 light bulb shapes. This light can work as a ceiling or wall light. The assembly and fitting to the ceiling or wall is simple; a metal bracket screws sideways to the circular frame. The bracket has two holes itself through which it is screwed to the ceiling or wall. The quality plated metal frame is in very good condition with the original warm antique patina present in line with age, adding character. Additional dimensions: Each flower has a diameter of 37 cm. Packing is offered free of charge. The petals would be separated. The parts would be bubble wrapped and boxed safely for transport. This piece could easily be posted in the mail. Massive Lighting History - Massive Lighting or `Lustrerie Massive` was founded in 1926 in Belgium.
