Suspended from a blackened metal structure with exposed pulleys and a counterweighted rocker mechanism, the adjustable system allows the shade to rise and fall effortlessly, transforming the fixture according to the needs of the room.

The white plexiglass shade diffuses light softly, creating an even glow that contrasts against the darker metal framework. Brass details punctuate the composition, introducing warmth without excess. The interplay of materials—matte blackened metal, satin brass, and opaline plexiglass—gives the piece its graphic presence.

Though modest in scale, the pendant carries an architectural sensibility. The suspended lines, weighted balance, and clean geometry draw the eye upward, making the fixture feel as much a spatial element as a source of light. Chosen not only to illuminate a room, but to bring movement and atmosphere into it.

Condition: Very good vintage condition, with light surface wear. This pendant has been professionally rewired by our team of restorationists with a new socket and canopy. Accepts one E26 base light bulb each.
