1950s Stilnovo-Style Pendant in Brass, Red Lacquer & Opaline Glass

An eye-catching 1950s mid century modern Italian ceiling pendant, attributed to Stilnovo, composed of a lacquered red metal stem with three offset brass arms, each supporting an opaline glass globe and and perforated brass collars.

The red lacquer injects a confident dash of color, characteristic of the post-war optimism of Italian design.

Why we love it: We’re drawn to the confident contrast between the clean opaline globes and the joyful red lacquer, anchored by the warmth of aged brass. It’s a rare piece that reads both graphic and poetic — ideal above a dining table or as a bold central piece in an entrance hall.
