The structure is built around a central vertical brass stem that supports a tapered, open framework formed by slender brass rods arranged in a conical geometry.
from this framework extend multiple horizontal brass arms, each carrying an opaline glass shade with a softly elongated oval profile. The shades are seated on conical metal holders finished in green lacquer, introducing a subtle yet characteristic color accent that contrasts harmoniously with the warm brass tones. A circular brass ring connects the vertical rods at mid-height, reinforcing both the structural integrity and the visual rhythm of the design.
the opaline glass shades diffuse the light evenly, producing a warm and atmospheric glow that enhances the architectural clarity of the chandelier without overpowering the space. When illuminated, the interplay between the milky glass, the aged brass, and the green-lacquered elements creates depth and visual softness.
the chandelier is fitted with standard e14 sockets and is compatible with european, us, and canadian electrical systems.
the brass surfaces show a natural patina consistent with age, while the green lacquer retains its original character with light wear visible upon close inspection. The opaline glass shades are in good condition, free from cracks or chips.
