Description

One of six very nice massive flower wall lights, made in Belgium in the 1970s. In a style reminiscent of designs by Willy Daro. These lights are made of brass and look like a life-size big flower, very nice sculpted in brass.

The golden brass reflects in a very nice pattern with a warm light creating depth. There are two layers of leaves; each leave is individually carved and shaped, to create a life like finish. The centre of each light is finished playfully with a lamp holder perfect for a decorative light bulb such as a gold light bulb. Each light requires one screw light bulb (E27) up to 60 watts. Presently fitted with a gold light bulbs of 40 watts. It is possible to use other light bulb shapes.

Massive lighting was known for high quality and original designs which vary between classic and modernist styles. In 2008 the company became part of Phillips Corporation. Cleaned respecting the beautiful patina, in full working order and ready to use.

Golded light bulbs included. Excellent condition, no issues.
