Mid-Century Modern Black Lacquered Pendant Light, Europe, 1950s

About the Item

The best thing about pendant 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 geometric harp. Normally, a lamp harp is but a common component of a lamp to which the shade is attached. Here however, it is the main design element that sets the overall impression. Like with classic lamps, the harp is composed of two parts, the saddle which is fastened under the lamp socket, and the frame attached to the saddle at its lower end and to the rod at its upper end. The black lacquered tubular metal structure is not closed, instead on one side it is left open with golden rods reaching towards each other leaving a gap. This artistic lithe frame holds the cylindrical ribbed glass globe. The light colour and pattern of the glass greatly accentuate the harp’s smooth surface and black and gold colour, and the contrast creates great visual interest. Adding to this contrast in shapes is the long metal rod stemming from the canopy, and the decorative finial. The evidently modern approach particularly exemplifies the aesthetic of European mid-century lighting design, favouring unique shapes and forms. The airy arrangement further accentuates the separate elements and the quality of the execution. While the patterned, frosted glass shade and metal body are typical of European lighting designs of the era, the creative harp still sets this pendant light model apart. Its streamlined modernism makes it an ideal addition to any interior style and space. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The glass has a crack in the bottom.

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...
