The spherical shade is articulated with radiating, leaf-like forms that taper downward, intersected by a band of geometric diamond motifs.

The glass carries a soft, frosted tone, diffusing the light and giving the surface a muted, almost silken quality. Above, the scrolled metalwork rises in a vertical composition, its hand-worked character offering a more structured contrast to the softness of the glass.

What gives the piece its presence is the way light is contained within the globe. It doesn’t project outward harshly, but settles into an even, ambient glow that emphasizes the pattern and relief of the glass.

A fixture suited to spaces where atmosphere matters—an entry, a hallway, or a smaller, more intimate room.

Condition: Great vintage condition, with minor wear to the glass and a time-earned patina to the iron. This pendant was professionally rewired by our team of restorationists with a new socket. Accepts one E26 base light bulb.
