The chandelier is formed as an elegant upturned bouquet of broad gilded leaves and wheat stems, creating a dramatic floral silhouette and a warm, atmospheric light.

The richly textured gold finish and organic composition are characteristic of Kögl’s decorative lighting designs, combining mid-century glamour with naturalistic forms. When illuminated, the layered leaves reflect the light beautifully, making the piece a striking focal point in both classic and modern interiors.

The chandelier features a central lamp holder and takes a standard screw-in bulb. It is suspended from a chain with a matching scalloped gilt metal ceiling rose. ( Bulb not included)

In good vintage condition with age-related wear consistent with use. Some minor gilt loss on a few leaves. The underside retains a beautiful bright gilding while the top side shows a visibly more muted and duller tone due to age not visible once mounted. Overall a well-preserved example with an attractive vintage patina.
