This sculptural ceiling light is an outstanding example of german lighting design from the 1970s, crafted by the renowned manufacturer hillebrand. The body is made of heavy, mouth-blown smoked glass (fumé), shaped into an organic, undulating silhouette. A particular highlight is the chrome-plated finial on the underside, which gives the light its characteristic space-age look. lighting effect: the tint of the glass gently filters the light, creating a warm and glare-free atmosphere. The refraction of light in the glass's curves also produces elegant reflections on the ceiling. condition & quality: the light is in excellent vintage condition. Weighing over 2 kg, it testifies to the solid craftsmanship for which hillebrand is known worldwide. The chrome plating is gleaming, and the glass is free of cracks or chips. product details: • manufacturer: hillebrand lighting, germany • era: 1970s • style: mid-century modern / space age • material: hand-blown smoked glass, chrome-plated metal • dimensions: height 22 cm, diameter 24 cm • weight: approx. 2.14 kg • socket: 1 x e27 standard (bulb not included) the bottle shown is for size comparison only and is not included.
