The broad, almost square glass shade has gently rounded corners and a shallow sculptural profile, giving the lamp a distinctive floating appearance. One of the most remarkable features is the arrangement of three decorative brass elements extending beneath the glass diffuser, each finished with a tapered, pointed form and a small white detail. These elements introduce an unexpected ornamental touch to the otherwise restrained modernist construction. The dark metal suspension and rounded ceiling canopy provide a striking contrast to the luminous white glass, emphasizing the lamp's elegant proportions. The generously sized glass shade creates a soft, diffused light and gives the piece a beautiful architectural presence. Its combination of geometric simplicity and delicate decorative details is characteristic of italian mid-century design, balancing functionality with a playful sculptural expression. The lamp would make an impressive centerpiece above a dining table, in a spacious entrance hall or in a living room with carefully selected vintage or contemporary furniture. The metal components show natural patina, small marks and age-related wear consistent with vintage use. The light requires three e14 light bulbs.
