Max Ingrand Fontana Arte No 2296 Ceiling Lamp in Glass, Brass and Metal, 1964

Creator: Max Ingrand - Fontana Arte (FontanaArte)
Offered by: Zeger van Olden

Description
Ceiling lamp no 2296 by Italian grandmaster Max Ingrand for the Milanese glass and lighting company Fontana Arte in Glass, Metal and beautifully patinated polished brass in very good condition.

An important example of midcentury Italian lighting design and a real classic piece of art now available for anyone who likes Max Ingrand and his use of pale green / blue glass and other high quality materials
Very well proportioned ceiling lamp with a ceiling mount that still has some classic 30's shapes. The rounded forms of the glass and the brass give it a soft and friendly yet stately appearance. The lamp is in good condition with no chips or damages.

The blue / green glass gives this version no 2296 a clinical and clean appearance so it would do very well in a bathroom, sauna, or clinic. Also very suitable to use in combination with marble or white walls so the colours , blue white and brass, can contrast nicely. With it's 18 bulbs it can spread a lot of light so if you are looking for a luxurious piece of art to lighten up a larger space then this may be the one ( if you put in normal bulbs they are dimmable). Also very suitable above larger rectangular or oval tables to create the perfect French Brasserie atmosphere.

On request we can adjust the height as you wish but for shipping purposes it might be smarter to do that locally. (But it's doable any metal worker / electrician can do this). The electrical wiring has not been checked but the lamp is in working condition.

The lamp is documented in 'Quaderni di Fontana Arte' and various other books. (I have a picture on request).
