Star Wall Lights by Gio Ponti
Italy | c. 1960 Brass, frosted opaline glass. 2 X E12, (candelabra) sockets for each. **This model has appeared at auction, with the design ascribed to Gio Ponti, and is even authenticated by the Gio Ponti Archives as a Ponti design. However, it is also published in the Arredoluce Catolog Raisonne as being designed by Angelo Lelii. We continue to do our research and strive to find the definitive answer with regards to this design's correct creator.
