Delta pendant by Sergio Mazza for Artemide, 1960s

Sergio Mazza designed this Delta Grande pendant for Italian lighting manufacturer Artemide in the 1960s.

The model consists of a pressed crystal bowl and an opaline shade. The structure is from matt nickel-plated brass.

The condition of the piece is very good. Currently there is one metal link between the lamp and the ceiling cap; the total length of this can be easily extended by replacing the link with a metal cord and adjusting the power cord accordingly.

Delta is part of a range of lamps named after the Greek alphabet. Other lamps from this series are amongst others ‘Gamma’, ‘Kappa’, ‘Omega’, ‘Pi’, ‘Sigma’ and ‘Tau’.
