Large Vintage, Mid-Century Modern Handcrafted Brass Round 8 Layers Pendant Light
Located in Lisse, NL
Rare design, three light pendants with layered brass shades.
If you are looking for a striking and extraordinary light fixture to grace your midcentury living or work space then these, European works of lighting art could be ideal for you. Mind you, we have a set of four, but we have decided to offer them as singles as well. This very stylishly handcrafted fixture dates back to the 1960s and its design is truly remarkable. The shade itself is created from eight thick layers of brass and the design is very well balanced. Due to the different size of each layer, the light is able to radiate through in various directions, which creates a beautiful atmospheric effect. One that truly is a joy to look at. The design and the material used really make these lights works of art and pendant lights into one. These chandeliers are in good condition and the patina is simply wonderful. With these pendants having been rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the USA, they are ready to be used and enjoyed in the land of the free...
