The list of "ingredients" of this successful recipe contains the main elements of the super glamorous style of Rome during the 70s. Acrylic glass and Brass were the main ingredients of another excellent recipe from the other side of the ocean, they characterize the splendid production of household items designed by Charles Hollis Jones for the most beautiful homes in Los Angeles. Although we were unable to obtain a certain attribution of the design of these essential and elegant vintage lamps, it is clear that they are the result of that opulent and luxurious style in vogue in the 70s throughout the West. The two engraved and ground cylindrical bases are surmounted by two thinner disks, one in brass and the other in milky acrylic from which 3 columns in clear acrylic and one in gilded metal depart, which hides the electrical system. On the brass lamp holders are fixed (but obviously removable) two custom made white lampshades on which our trusted professional has applied two strips of polished brass that repeat the decorative theme of the bases. The lamps are working and are in good vintage condition. They don't show obvious signs on the acrylic surface but a pleasant patina of time on the brass on the gilded metal.
