These small circular flush mounts from the 1970s produced by Palwa (Palme & Walter) perfectly illustrate the expertise of this high-end lighting manufacturer. Renowned for the quality of its 24-carat gold gilding and the use of Bohemian and Swarovski crystals, Palwa placed as much importance on the quality of its materials as on the care taken in their assembly. A manufacturing standard found even in its most modestly sized fixtures.

All the quality of Palwa lighting in a small format

On a round gilded brass frame, 29 generous crystal drops are arranged in three tiered rows, their curves and transparency magnifying and multiplying the light. The intensity of the gilding, the regularity of the assembly, and the quality of the crystal are all details that distinguish these fixtures from more ordinary productions of their time.

When off, they already possess a beautiful decorative, almost jewelry-like appeal. Once lit, the crystal drops multiply the reflections and project delicate patterns of light onto the ceiling, while the gilded frame brings a warm tone to the whole. The combination of crystal and gilded brass, characteristic of the Hollywood Regency style, highlights their precious elegance.

Their compact dimensions make them particularly interesting for lighting an entrance hall, a vestibule, or a hallway. Arranged in succession in a corridor, they also create a particularly elegant luminous rhythm, without requiring high ceilings.
