The story
This white opaline glass, brass, and metal chandelier was designed by Angelo Lelii for Arredoluce in 1958. Featuring a meticulously crafted abstract structure made from curved brass rods surrounding the opaline glass shade, this luminaire is a smaller variation of Lelii's iconic Medusa chandelier. The matte finish of the opaline glass provides a warm, diffuse light that is captured by the brass, elegantly highlighting the ensemble. This piece has been fully restored, electrified, and is in great condition.
Angelo Lelii (1911-1979) was an Italian designer celebrated for his pioneering work in lighting design. Founding Arredoluce in 1947, Lelii collaborated with renowned designers like Franco Albini and Achille and Pier Castiglioni to produce avant-garde lighting collections. His minimalist forms, inspired by new technologies, continue to inspire designers globally, solidifying his legacy as a visionary in the field.

About Angelo Lelii
Angelo Lelii was the Italian founder of Arredoluce, the lighting company he established in Monza in 1943. Working alongside designers such as Gio Ponti, Ettore Sottsass and the Castiglioni brothers, he also designed many of the firm's lamps himself, often in brass and lacquered aluminium with articulated arms and precise mechanical details. Collectors look for original Arredoluce production from the 1950s and 1960s, especially floor lamps and chandeliers in untouched condition.
