Angelo Lelii for Arredoluce lantern pendant ceiling light, circa 1959
This is a rare model, that hardly shows up; it's in its original condition, rewired, cleaned and working perfectly. It's conceived around the idea of a lantern contextualizing the modern era which was a typical approach for the 1950's. The brass structure, including tapering ivory or cream enameled metal frame and satin or acid-etched glass panel shades is ending with a decorative brass finial. The original ivory enameled canopy as the cap for covering the connection from stem to lantern are present.
