Description
Brass and glass chandelier, designed by Max Ingrand, model 2338, manufactured by Fontana Arte during the 1960s.
This ceiling light boasts a commanding presence, characterized by its sophisticated and theatrical design. True to Max Ingrand's signature style, glass stands as the primary material in this creation. The lamp features five diffusers, each comprised of meticulously crafted crystal elements, strategically positioned to maximize light reflection. The resultant illumination, filtered through the nuanced texture of the crystal, offers a visually pleasing and captivating ambiance.
The glass components are expertly machined and partially frosted, particularly within the concave section designed to house the light bulb. Fontana Arte, renowned for its mastery in harnessing the aesthetic potential of glass, meticulously oversees the manufacturing process. Max Ingrand, serving as the creative director for an extensive period, has left an indelible mark on the precision and artistry of this piece.
Presented in fully operational condition, this lamp retains its original pristine state, offering a seamless blend of functionality and timeless elegance.
