Mid-Century Brutalist Six Arm Textural Brass & Mottled Glass Chandelier

















Mid-Century Brutalist Six Arm Textural Brass & Mottled Glass Chandelier
This commanding mid-century chandelier embodies the bold aesthetic of Brutalist design while maintaining a refined, artistic sensibility. Crafted in Italy circa 1970, it features six arms fashioned from textural brass, showcasing a dynamic interplay of intricate surfaces and geometric forms—a hallmark of the Brutalist movement.
Supported by the brass frame, the upward-facing mottled glass shades introduce a subtle contrast to the sculptural texture of the metal. Their organic patterns enhance the interplay of materials, beautifully diffusing light while accentuating the chandelier's striking presence. This synergy between materials creates a unique visual tension, blending the raw allure of Brutalist architecture with the elegance of Italian craftsmanship.
A quintessential piece for collectors and design enthusiasts, this chandelier is ideal for infusing personality into a dining room, living space, or loft-like interior. Its dramatic presence and sculptural quality make it a standout addition to a space seeking a bold yet sophisticated lighting fixture. Newly rewired to American standards with a height adjusted to suit, this chandelier accommodates six edison base bulbs achieving up to 600 watts of light. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
