Bruno Gatta (1904-1976) for Stilnovo, Model '288' Pendant light, circa 1954, Enamelled aluminium, glass, electrical fittings, Manufacturer's label to frame, 75cm high. Literature: Alex Coles, Pierre Doze, Didier Krzentowski, 'The Complete Designers' Lights 1950-1990 II: Catalogue Raisonné', RP Ringier; New edition, 2014, see similar example illustrated p.54 It is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that electrical items are professionally rewired for use.
Some minor surface wear to enamelled shade to include light scratches/scuffs and minor flea bite nicks to finish, metal fittings with signs of oxidisation throughout. The glass disc is in good condition no chips or cracks, would benefit from cleaning. One of the three chords housing electrical wires has been entirely replaced with black electrical tape. The light has six light fittings. The light does not come with a ceiling mount however, it looks from the top of the ceiling rose as if it would require one large bolt to secure.
