Black metal mounting structure holding two rows – six on top and three on the bottom – of blown frosted glass globes. Partial Arteluce label on rim of metal base and all original blown glass globes. An iconic Sarfatti design that is quite striking and commands attention in any interior.
Rewired to U.S. standards.
