This model's distinctive feature lies in the refined combination of material elements typical of fine italian craftsmanship and industrial design of the period. The diffuser is a large globe of mouth-blown artistic glass with a densely textured finish, using the pulegoso/ice-effect technique, which fades towards the top into a milky white decoration. This process shields the direct light from the internal bulbs, creating a soft and evocative atmosphere. Inside the bulb is a dramatic central metal structure with nine light points that creates spectacular light refraction effects. The entire structure rests on a slender multi-tubular chrome-plated steel structure. A dual-function switch allows for adjusting the desired light intensity. A truly beautiful piece of period furniture. All its components remain in their original condition.
