Crafted from brass and black-lacquered steel, the chandelier features five curved brass arms extending from a cone-shaped central body. Each arm supports a sculptural black metal shade, finished in white on the inside and decorated with a row of star-shaped perforations around the upper edge. When illuminated, the perforations allow small points of light to shine through, adding a decorative detail to the design. The combination of black lacquered metal and warm brass gives the chandelier a distinctive Scandinavian mid-century appearance. The five shades are arranged around the central body, creating a balanced and sculptural form when viewed from different angles. The chandelier is suspended from a long brass rod and retains its original brass ceiling canopy. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
