Vintage Mid-Century Modern Metal and Plexiglass lights Chandelier by Gaetano Sciolari. This striking lighting fixture is an impressive example of mid-century modern Italian design. The chandelier features a dynamic, architectural form composed of intersecting horizontal and vertical elements. The main structure is crafted from brushed metal with a silver or pewter tone, forming a staggered grid. The design incorporates contrasting gilded brass elements within the structure for added visual depth. Each light point is characterized by a sleek cylindrical form. The top portion of the cylinder is metal, while the lower section features clear plexiglass or acrylic that caps the bottom, a signature modern touch that allows light to shine through and refract. The use of mixed metals and acrylic tubing creates a sophisticated, almost skeletal design that is both Brutalist and elegant. This piece would serve as a stunning focal point in any contemporary or vintage interior. Angelo Gaetano Sciolari (1927-1994) was the owner of Sciolari Lighting and designer for the Italian manufacturer Stilnovo in the 1950s. It was while working for Stilnovo that Sciolari "created his most recognizable and celebrated designs, a series of multi-light chandeliers fashioned with both glossy and matte metal, conjuring up futuristic visions of the dawning space age.
