The glass, of a light shade tending towards opaline white or cream, is decorated with a relief motif, probably geometric or stylized floral, typical of the central years of the twentieth century. The glass processing creates an interesting play of light and shadow once the bulb is turned on. The ceiling mount is made of metal, probably brass or a gold-colored painted metal, which has a patina of time that underlines its vintage character. The shape of the frame is simple and functional, designed to support and enhance the glass diffuser. The dimensions of the ceiling light suggest that it was suitable for illuminating medium-sized rooms. Its sober but elegant style makes it a versatile furnishing accessory, capable of integrating into different contexts, from modern to retro. The light emitted by this ceiling light would be soft and diffused, thanks to the properties of the opal glass and its workmanship. It represents a fascinating example of the lighting design of the past, combining functionality and aesthetics with a touch of originality given by the artisanal processing of glass.
