Mid-Century Modern Sunburst Crystal Flush Mount Ceiling Light

This is a sophisticated Mid-Century Modern flush mount light fixture, characterized by a complex sunburst or lotus-inspired geometric design. The central focus features a dense cluster of faceted spherical crystal globes arranged in concentric circles, designed to refract light and create a shimmering effect. Radiating from this center are sculpted, petal-shaped glass or acrylic panels with dark, contrasting borders—possibly bronze or nickel plating—that define the 'floral' silhouette. Small, beaded crystal strands run along the seams between these outer panels, adding further texture and brilliance. The construction reflects the high-end craftsmanship often associated with European lighting houses like Palwa or Kinkeldey from the 1960s or 1970s. The outer frame shows sharp, clean lines with a slight golden-hued internal glow, suggesting brass or gilt-metal interior components. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible cracks in the glass elements, though a slight age-related patina may be present on the internal metal frame. This piece serves as both a functional light source and a sculptural art piece, emblematic of the Hollywood Regency and Space Age design movements.
