About the Item

Italian designers and manufacturers were true pioneers of mid-century lighting design, creating never-before-seen shapes and forms, and this unique pendant lamp is a stunning example. The shape of the glass shade has a floral inspiration, with a scalloped edge that infuses the overall look with organicity. On this front, the aesthetic is reminiscent of Finnish icons Paavo Tynell and Mauri Almari’s design language that often featured floral elements. The delicate flower shape adds elegance to the overall design, and - in combination with the brass element - the result is an unmistakeable mid-century look. Furthermore, the shade houses a single light bulb which, when lit, creates a beautiful effect through the blue Murano glass. Murano glass is world-renowned for its unparalleled quality and exquisite range of colours, therefore this material choice showcases the true craftsmanship of the designer. A well-chosen lighting piece can change the overall look of a room and how it feels to inhabit the space. This model is the perfect addition to bring a touch of elegance to any space without it being overwhelming. Its level of craftsmanship and unique character make it a timeless example of the golden age of Italian mid-century lighting design. ‎Condition: In good vintage condition.

Mid-Century Modern Brass and Glass Ceiling Lamp, Europe ca 1950s
Located in Utrecht, NL
The best thing about hanging ceiling lights - besides their stylish look - is that they are the best option to make interiors appear more spacious. They can be used them to concentrate light, or to just add an accent to the room. This lamp’s design revolves around the clear glass sphere. Glass is the perfect material for light shades as it allows light to pass through it. This means that glass light shades offer almost as much illumination as a bare light bulb. The result is bright and vibrant light, and this is exactly what this model offers. The design’s main point is its effective simpleness, free of any unnecessary detail. The uncluttered look leaves the attention on the materials and on functionality that the form is also in service of. As such, the canopy, the rod, and the shade holder are all quite understated, accentuating the glass shade instead. The pairing of glass and brass is perhaps the most iconic material duo in mid-century modern European lighting...
