progress in the stairway: stucco repair and new lamp
/
The BEFORE situation
Angelo had set up a scaffold and decided to repair the stucco of the ceiling in the stairway of the first floor (primo piano) by himslef, paint the ceiling and walls and hang the lamp he and his wife have found on a flea market near Venice.

(here he bought a similar piece of stucco and adjusted it)
and after Angelo's artistic job !
(actually, I cannot see that something is not original)
the beautiful ceiling after repair and paint - wow !
(who's father or father-in-law is able to do that ?!?!)
and here comes the above mentioned lamp - an antique flea market find
the only thing, that I have to do with this luster, is that I have chosen the location for it
(not sure if you remember my posts about the small 'original' lamp that I wanted to keep in the main entrance, here and here)
this is the picture I have received today:
the scaffolding is gone and a second lamp is mounted on a wall in the background.
I cannot wait to see the walls and rail painted and the wooden rail handle mounted !
It looks now much more liveable!
This is the other lamp - again not my choice, but a good choice - it's a simple round Murano glass wall lamp. It hangs in the stairway that leads to the attic. The wooden panels above the lamp is from the flooring. It will be used as a small path. More about the attic coming soon.
