Striking Italian 1970s starburst flush-mount fixture designed by Oscar Torlasco for Stilkronen. Featuring branching brass rays tipped with clear glass elements and a central mirrored chrome sphere, it creates a dazzling interplay of light and reflection.

An exceptional mid-century lighting piece, this starburst fixture is designed by Oscar Torlasco and produced by Stilkronen in Italy during the 1970s. The expressive composition pairs radiating brass arms tipped with faceted clear glass elements with a central mirrored chrome sphere that magnifies reflections and adds depth to the design. Renowned for his sculptural approach to illumination, Torlasco's works epitomize the bold optimism of the Space Age and Hollywood Regency aesthetics. Versatile in application, this piece functions brilliantly as a statement wall sconce or a compact ceiling fixture, casting intricate patterns across surrounding surfaces while retaining its sculptural presence when unlit.
