This large Stilnovo style chandelier is very extraordinary. The large scale-brass and black metal lamp shades are going in different directions. It is crafted in Italy in the style of Stilnove from the 1950s. The chandelier also works in the US. A unique piece which is a great eyecatcher for your antique, midcentury, space age, modern or mid-century interior. Mid Century The Mid Century period was an age of dreams and optimism. In the post-war-years, after all the chaos and crisis of a global conflict, the world began to rebuild and rethink itself.
