Description
Drawing influence from the first man-made satellite to orbit the earth in 1957, sputnik 1, the Sputnik chandelier has become an icon for space exploration and technological advancement. This space-age luminary was born during the “atomic age” design period (1940-1960), where atomic science and fear of nuclear warfare dominated Western thought and heavily influenced interior design. Since then, this mid-century fixture has made its way from Earth’s orbit to entryways and living rooms, always to be remembered as one small step for science, and one giant leap for style.
