I scored this light Saturday at a church rummage sale. I really like the geometric outline and Piet Mondrian - style glass panels. Now I wish I lived someplace where I could install it. Someday, this will be part of my dream house. Can anyone give any history?

Looks very much like a Frank Lloyd Wright design.
Thanks. It looks as if it borrowed from multiple styles. I especially like the squared off knobs. The only image I found so far lists it as Mondrian Pendant.
I simply cannot picture this. I love Mondrian. I'll have to revisit it when I'm rested. What are the dimensions, please? Thanks!
possibly Mondrian influenced mission style swag lamp; tho' with the painted on glass design and light weight metal would make it a low end fixture.
It's ~5X17", plus the wiring. I found another one from googling "Mondrian Light":

The shop claims it is 1960s Italy.
