Large Italian Art Deco Wrought Iron Lantern in the style of Paolo Buffa, 1940s
This is a highly elegant piece, crafted thanks to the remarkable technical expertise of Italian craftsmen. The structure features a pyramidal base with edges decorated with wave motifs. At the center, a series of thin vertical bars creates a grid effect, enriched with elegant scrolls and spirals. The upper portion is topped by a flat, slightly sloping roof, adding a classic touch. The dark wrought iron lends a sturdy, traditional look. Ornamental details, such as the curls at the ends, highlight the meticulous craftsmanship. The lantern is suspended from a central support, ideal for indoor or outdoor use.
