This exquisite pendant chandelier was designed by Carl Fagerlund and produced by Orrefors in the 1960's. It features a cylindrical body composed of two thick curved glass panes, molded with a paneled bubble texture on the exterior and a gridded texture on the reverse which imitates hand-cut crystal. Warm brushed brass hardware including a stem and ceiling canopy complete the look. NOTES: Height provided includes canopy and stem. The glass fixture alone measures 10" high. There's a reason Carl Fagerlund's work has remained amongst the most beloved and sought-after in Scandinavian lighting for over 50 years: no other designer of the period possessed such masterful understanding of the elements of light and glass - an understanding which allowed Fagerlund to create functional works of art that illuminated an ambient mood, not just a room. During his partnership with the legendary Swedish glassworks Orrefors, Fagerlund produced a prolific body of work. His hardwired designs most often feature warm brass hardware and thick, pressed glass panels in a variety of textures, which diffuse the light to various effects; faux cut-glass, for example, creates bright, glittering sparkles, while ice glass produces warm, wavy rays. Effusive use of crystal and gold tones lends luxury and glamour to Fagerlund's fixtures, while Modernist design sensibilities keep them from appearing too garish or over-the-top, giving them a chameleon-like ability to complement a wide rage of d?cor styles. Dimensions: H 25" x Dia. 8" Condition: Wear consistent with age and use. Wiring not tested. Brass with a few small pits, light patination. B094
