Item description

This magnificent 1950s Mid-Century Modern sputnik chandelier is a masterpiece of Italian lighting design designed byOscar Torlasco for Lumi Milano. Commanding in both size and style, this authentic vintage fixture features a striking patinated brass finish that exudes a warm, sophisticated glow. The design is a sophisticated take on the atomic era, characterized by sixteen slender, tapered arms that radiate from a central spherical hub. Six arms reach upward in a tight, crown-like cluster, while ten arms sweep outward in a dramatic horizontal expanse, creating a dynamic silhouette that fills a room with architectural presence. Each arm terminates in a delicate trumpet-shaped socket designed to hold slender candelabra-style bulbs, providing an expansive and balanced distribution of light. This impressive piece maintains its original vintage character, showcasing a rich natural patina that confirms its age and provenance. Whether placed in a grand entryway, a formal dining room, or a spacious living area, this chandelier serves as a definitive statement piece that captures the height of Milanese elegance from the mid-20th century. The chandelier is functional with the original system from the 50s, however it needs to be overhauled before being installed.
