This ceiling lamp is designed around a circular gilded bronze structure, embellished with artistic workmanship and reflective crystals. The upper section features a wide circular band of gilded bronze with a patinated finish. This crown is entirely decorated with floral motifs and finely chiseled relief scrolls. Above the cast band is a crown of clear glass elements shaped like a leaf or stylized shell. These elements open outward with a cantilevered movement, increasing the diameter of this ceiling light to 75 cm. The lower half of the chandelier is composed of a dense composition of clear cut crystal pendants: the upper row is made up of elongated rectangular prisms with pointed ends, interspersed with small octagonal beads. The central section curves inward with decreasing rows of crystal octagons, creating a closed basket structure. The base terminates with another pointed terminal and a sphere. The internal lighting diffuses through the dense crystal mesh, creating a sparkling effect with prismatic reflections (clearly visible in the points of reflected light). The ceiling attachment is completed by a cast gold rosette and three glass elements—included in the indicated height of 70 cm. Italy, circa 1960. The ceiling light has been completely rewired to European standards, and the internal chrome parts have been polished.
