Gorgeous, authentic mid-century modern opaline glass globe pendant light dating from the late 1960s to early 1970s. This timeless fixture perfectly embodies the minimalist, clean-lined aesthetic of the space age and atomic eras.The centerpiece of this fixture is a substantial 12-inch mouth-blown milk/opaline white glass sphere that distributes light beautifully without harsh glare or hot spots.
