Lacquered blue metal base supporting two enormous overlapping tulips made of white opaline Murano glass. Double switch. One is for turning on the central bulb. The other is for turning on the other three. It is possible to light 1, 3, or 4 bulbs simultaneously and to choose the level of brightness. Very beautiful dimensions: Height 40 cm. Diameter 45 cm.
