This model features a cone-shaped aluminum shade with its original brown wrinkle-finish (textured) lacquer beautifully preserved. The shade sits elegantly on a slender brass tripod base with teardrop feet, a design highly characteristic of the stilnovo production era. It projects a soft, warm atmospheric glow upwards, making it a perfect accent light for a sideboard, desk, or bedside table. Equipped with an e14 light socket, making it easy to use with modern led bulbs.
condition reportexcellent vintage condition and fully functional. The original wiring has been tested and works perfectly. The textured brown paint on the cone shade is in pristine condition with no scratches, dents, or fading. As normal coeval signs of age, there is a minor paint chip on the lower brown stem just above the tripod base exposing the brass underneath, and a tiny hairline surface crack on the plastic of the vintage switch (both clearly documented in the detail photos). These minor points do not affect the stability, operation, or gorgeous aesthetic appeal of the lamp.
