The fixture represents the later phase of the mid-century style, emphasizing technical precision and geometric purity. The overall composition, based on a central cylinder from which three horizontal arms extend, gives the piece a modern, industrial feel. The structure is made of chrome-plated steel, which has been professionally cleaned to a high mirror finish during restoration. The polished metal surface creates a striking visual contrast with the three glass shades, each with a diameter of 13 cm. These shades feature the cylindrical shape typical of drukov production, with delicate vertical ribbing (known as "optic glass") that creates interesting lighting effects on the walls while softly diffusing light throughout the room. The chandelier has undergone a complete overhaul, including new professional wiring that meets current safety standards. It is fitted with standard e27 sockets, allowing for the easy use of powerful led bulbs. Thanks to its timeless chrome finish and minimalist form, this piece is an ideal addition to modern lofts as well as retro-styled interiors.
