About the Item

Mid-Century Modern Flush Mount with Frosted Glass and Teak – 1950s Some pieces just feel right the moment you see them — this mid-century flush mount is one of those. Made in the 1950s, it strikes a rare balance between simplicity, elegance, and quiet character. The large, shallow glass dome features subtle concentric ridges that gently play with light, casting a soft, warm glow that feels calm and grounded. What makes this piece even more special is its visual stillness — the frosted finish barely reflects its surroundings. No glare, no distraction — just a smooth, almost floating presence on your ceiling. The addition of three sculpted teakwood clips adds warmth and contrast, bringing the whole design together beautifully. While the designer is unknown, everything about this light — from the quality of materials to the refined silhouette — points to 1950s German or Italian origin. It clearly echoes the best of mid-century European craftsmanship. The fixture is suspended from a wide canopy with a built-in hook for quick, secure installation. Just below the canopy, a discreet tightening nut allows you to fasten the piece snugly against the ceiling. The canopy is generously sized to easily cover any standard junction box. Whether in a living room, bedroom, dining space or office, this piece brings immediate character without overwhelming the room. With its generous size, timeless materials, and serene presence, it’s a perfect alternative to a traditional chandelier. Timeless, understated, and effortlessly modern — this is vintage lighting at its very best. This light will be professionally rewired for safe and immediate use in the country it ships to. Our fair price includes secure, expert packing and free global shipping — delivered from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days, wherever you are in the world. Maximum diameter (without the teak wood clips) x height: 23.2 x 8 inches. Diameter of the canopy: 5 inches. We are driven by a passion for uniqueness, timeless, quality, stylish design, and the enduring craftsmanship of the past. Every purchase is carefully and thoughtfully packed — and we look forward to serving you (again). To explore all our 1000+ listings, simply click the button labeled 'View All From Seller'.
