About the Item

A charming ceiling lamp/flush mount from the 1940s–1950s. The square fabric shade is delicately embroidered with swallow motifs, creating a decorative and light-diffusing surface. Designed for four light points, the lamp combines functionality with poetic detailing. The soft textile finish and handcrafted embroidery reflect the period’s craftsmanship and attention to decorative detail, making this lamp not only a lighting fixture but also an atmospheric design element. Its proportions and subtle character allow it to blend seamlessly into a wide range of interiors, from vintage and eclectic to modern and Scandinavian settings. Made in Sweden during the 1950s. Its timeless design allows it to complement a variety of interiors, including Modern, Scandinavian, Classic, or Art Deco-inspired spaces.
