Midcentury Two-Tier Faceted Glass Chandelier by Kinkeldey with Chrome Fittings
-
Description
This elegant Mid-Century Modern chandelier was realized by the esteemed maker Kinkeldey in Austria circa 1960. It features two circular tiers of faceted crystal (resembling oversized cut diamonds) connected to a polished chrome frame. The fixture hangs from the ceiling via a cylindrical rod (in the same material) that connects to a slightly tapered cylindrical canopy, also in polished chrome. The chandelier is equipped with mercury bulbs that offer a beautiful tonal counterpoint to the chrome found throughout and nicely disperses the light in any room. With its clean modernist lines and impeccable construction by one of the era's great lighting ateliers, this fixture is as versatile as it is aesthetically compelling, blending perfectly with any style of interior from classic Mid-Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly rewired to American standards and is in excellent vintage condition. The height can be adjusted to suit.
