Mid-20th century Italian lantern in neo-classical style, with a frame of gilt metal with semi-frosted glass shade. Made by Lumi of Italy (labelled).

The fixture comprises a lantern of thick semi-frosted glass, with figured metal frame. The frame is finished in a rich gold tone. Overall good vintage condition, with age-appropriate signs of wear to the gold finish throughout and minor flaws in the glass. See images for examples and overview; images are taken in natural light. "Lumi, Milano" label in place.

New wiring will be required and we recommend the light is rewired close to installation as the piece will be dismantled for shipping.
