$4,975.00

This stunning Mid-Century Modernist Sputnik chandelier, designed by Emil Stejnar for Rupert Nikoll and crafted in Austria circa 1958, is a timeless example of bold innovation and sophisticated craftsmanship characteristic of the era. Often associated with post-war optimism and futuristic design, the Sputnik form reflects the space-age aesthetic that dominated the late 1950s.

The chandelier's polished brass frame forms a dynamic central orb from which radiates an array of slender brass arms, each adorned with faceted crystals that scatter light in enchanting patterns. The combination of highly reflective brass and multifaceted crystals creates a dazzling interplay of light and texture, making this chandelier a centerpiece that elevates any space.

As a design by Emil Stejnar, known for merging traditional craftsmanship with modern sensibilities, this piece exemplifies his expertise in blending delicate materials with dramatic architectural forms. Manufactured by the renowned Austrian lighting company Rupert Nikoll, it underscores the region's reputation for exceptional design and artistry during the mid-20th century.

Perfect for dining rooms, entryways, or grand living spaces, this iconic Sputnik chandelier embodies the glamorous simplicity and celestial inspiration of Mid-Century design. Its enduring elegance ensures it holds both historical and aesthetic appeal, making it a highly sought-after collectible in the world of vintage lighting. Newly rewired to American Standards with height that can be adjusted to suit, this chandelier accommodate 19 candelabra base bulbs achieving up to 1140 watts of light.
