Large Italian Spiral Optic Art Glass Pendant Light, c.1970

1970s

An impressive oversized Italian glass pendant light dating to the 1970s, featuring an elegant, sculptural silhouette and intricate spiral optic detailing. The beautifully formed clear glass shade is decorated with fine, concentric spirals that radiate from its raised centre, creating a striking optical effect and gently diffusing the light. A delicate amber-gold rim and brass fittings add warmth to the otherwise transparent glass. With its generous 58 cm diameter and shallow profile, this piece makes a wonderful statement in an entrance hall, living room or above a dining table. Equally at home in contemporary and traditional interiors. Details Origin: Italy Period: c.1970s Condition: Vintage, with age-related wear
