The design features a prominent cylindrical stem finished in high-polish chrome, which transitions into a compact, bell-shaped shade painted in matte black. A subtle yet effective design detail is the ring of small perforated holes where the chrome meets the black shade. These perforations allow for heat dissipation while creating a delicate "starry" circle of light around the fixture when illuminated. The interior is painted white to maximize light reflection. with its compact diameter of 14 cm, this pendant is ideal for use as a spotlight, hung in a row above a kitchen counter, or clustered at varying heights for a dramatic effect. Condition Report: The lamp is in good vintage condition. The chrome finish is bright with minimal pitting or wear. The black paint is generally clean, with minor signs of age-related wear (light scuffs) possible.
