The waterfall model is characterized by its clean, architectural lines: a cylindrical stem rises from a white lacquered round base, from which several chrome-plated steel tubes extend at varying heights. The elegantly curved arms support a total of five opal-white glass spheres, arranged like falling drops, giving the model its distinctive name.

the contrast between the cool chrome, white lacquered sockets, and the spherical glass shades lends the lamp a typical modernist aesthetic. When switched on, the opalescent glass spheres produce a pleasantly diffused, warm light with a soft, ambient effect. The lamp features a double switch on the cord, allowing the light sources to be switched on and off separately. Original base with a flat, round bottom.

condition: signs of age-related wear on the base and lacquered elements, slight patina on the chrome. Glass spheres without visible damage. Technically functional.

dimensions: l33 x w33 x h190 cm
