Very elegant, will furnish and decorate your whole room.

The chandelier is formed by a large central sphere, in which brass rods have been screwed. On each brass rod there is either a flattened glass sphere or a brass disc. The brass rods alternate short and long. A light bulb is inserted inside each sphere for a total of eighteen lights. As you can see from the photos the spheres are made of "Lattimo" glass. The "Lattimo" glass resembles traditional Italian porcelain or counterfeit porcelain due to its opaque white color. This gradient is achieved by adding fluoride salts to the batch. Over time, lattimo began to be used for enamel decorations on gold and silver in goldsmith shops.
