Installed in Rotterdam, it survived the Luftwaffe bombing of the city on May 14, 1940, making it a rare and historically significant piece. Colossal and majestic, it is composed of genuine, sparkling crystals, all intact and complete, offering exceptional brilliance and a rich visual effect. Made of brass and crystal, it embodies the traditional hot air balloon style, still highly valued for its timeless elegance. In an entryway, living room, or large reception room, it instantly adds prestige and character, becoming a central decorative element and diffusing a spectacular light thanks to its seven bulbs, creating an immediate sense of grandeur.
