The UFO pendant lamp is a futuristic, rather unusual piece. The structure recalls some Midcentury Modern designs, and the use of brushed aluminium and matte black gives an elegant touch to the general look.
It is all made out of metallic parts: the aluminium shade of a vintage desk lamp, an enamelled ring (from unknown origin... maybe some kind of grill? its lid was used in the
Wasp Lamp), four long screws and four cabinet catchs that hold both parts together, plus several small screws and bolts. The cord (1,6m long), bulb socket and cup are all black, and the wire connector is included.
Measures: 33cm the widest diameter, 22cm high.

Marking the position of the screws and holders; then drilling the multiple holes to make the attachements. Then it would come the sanding of the holes, mounting and wiring of the lamp.
