Mid-Century Modern Frosted Glass Saucer Form Pendant in with Chrome Fittings

Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
This refined and sophisticated Mid-Century Modern pendant was realized in Czechoslovakia circa 1950. Resembling a stylized flying saucer, the pendant features a white enamel tented shade with a raised lip that bisects the cylindrical frosted glass shade, cantilevering over the lower half. The fixture connects to the ceiling via a circular concave canopy in lustrous polished chrome and a cylindrical rod in the same material. With its elegant silhouette and graphic form- economically combining austere geometric elements to create a dynamic and irresistibly compelling lighting object- this piece is as versatile as it is stunning. Its monochromatic color palate and clean modernist lines ensure that it would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century to contemporary. It has been newly rewired to American standards and is in excellent vintage condition. The fixture accommodates an edison based bulb offering up to 100 watts of light.
