Modernist chandelier in solid crystal and brass – Signed Schneider 1960

Spectacular three-branch chandelier made of solid crystal, blown and hot-stretched by the famous French glassworks Schneider. An iconic model from the post-war period, reflecting the advent of modernist and organic design from the 1950s-1960s. This sculptural piece is distinguished by its asymmetrical free-form silhouette, where three spikes of varying heights emerge from a fluid base made of translucent crystal of excellent density.
