New Arrival: Chrome and Glass Table Lamp, produced in Italy, c1970s. The lamp features a spherical opaline Murano glass shade held within a chrome ring, supported by a curved metal arm rising from a flat circular base. A cylindrical chrome fitting projects at an angle from the top of the globe, accentuating its tilted profile. A refined example of 20th-century Italian lighting design.⁣

New Arrival: Pair of Wall Lights (model: 1822), designed by Max Ingrand for Fontana Arte, Italy, c1960s. Each light features an elongated, tapering frosted-glass shade supported by a polished chrome metal fitting. The rounded shade holder curves sinuously towards the wall, meeting a flared mounting plate in a continuous form. The reflective metal contrasts with the matte surface of the glass, which diffuses a warm glow when illuminated. A rare and beautiful example of Ingrand’s restrained approach to lighting design.⁣

New Arrival: Floor Lamp, model 1094, attributed to Gino Sarfatti for Arteluce, Italy, c1960s. The lamp comprises a chromed metal stem that rises from a cylindrical cream marble base, supporting two spherical opaline glass shades arranged at different heights. Each shade sits within a chromed ring, with adjustable fittings allowing the lights to be positioned independently. Circular openings with metal rims direct light from beneath the shades, while the opaline glass provides a soft, diffused glow. The rounded forms contrast with the linear stem and the subtle veining of the marble base.⁣

New Arrival: Eight-Arm Chandelier produced by Barovier & Toso, Italy, 1940s. Executed in clear Murano glass with brass fittings, the chandelier features eight curved arms arranged at varying heights, each supporting a ribbed, bowl-shaped shade with a scalloped rim. Tall rods of glass flare above the central assembly, curving gently outwards and continuing the shape of each arm. A long, spiral-ribbed glass column encloses the brass suspension rod and meets a matching ribbed ceiling canopy. An exceptional example of 20th-century Murano glass design.⁣

New Arrival: Rare Wall Lamp, model 2130, produced by Stilnovo, Italy, 1950s. Finished in cream enamel, the lamp features a long, rectangular-section arm supported by a diagonal brace and mounted on a narrow wall plate. A domed metal shade encloses a rounded opaline glass diffuser, secured beneath by a small brass finial. The arm pivots horizontally, while a chrome joint allows the shade to tilt and rotate. A loop handle provides a practical means of directing the light. The angular support contrasts with the rounded shade, giving the design a distinctive architectural character.⁣
