Description

A 1950s delightful 3-light modern design pendant chandelier attributed to the Italian designer Oscar Torlasco. Three cones in white glass, enclosing the light source and ending in a perforated metal upper part, cold painted in matt gold brass color, accented by a black central band, are cleverly supported by black metal brackets that highlight the design, jutting off a hexagonal central part decorated in two tones to match the cones. Italian lighting designer Oscar Torlasco born in Rome (1934-2004) is well known for its lighting designs for the best Italian lighting manufacturers including Esperia and Lumi. In 1959, he was awarded a Compasso d`Oro for his public street light Genova 4053.
