About the Item

The 1940s Scandinavian glass lamp is a distinguished example of mid-20th-century design, reflecting the region's renowned craftsmanship and aesthetic sensibilities. This lamp combines robust materials with refined details to create a piece that is both functional and visually captivating. The lamp features a thick, heavy glass base, meticulously mouth-blown, showcasing the high level of skill and precision characteristic of Scandinavian glassmaking traditions. The weight and solidity of the glass base not only ensure stability but also impart a sense of enduring quality. The transparency and subtle imperfections inherent in mouth-blown glass add a layer of visual interest, capturing and reflecting light in a way that enhances the lamp's overall allure. Crowning the glass base is a brass top, which introduces a warm, metallic contrast to the cool clarity of the glass. The brass element provides a touch of elegance and sophistication, typical of the period's design ethos. The lamp is topped with an elegant blue vintage raw silk shade, which adds a luxurious and tactile dimension to the piece. The raw silk, known for its rich texture and natural luster, imbues the lamp with a sense of refined elegance. The blue hue of the shade brings a pop of color, while the vintage fabric evokes a sense of timeless charm. The choice of raw silk also speaks to the era's appreciation for quality and craftsmanship in textiles. ( Will be rewired with beige fabric wire accompanied by a US or EU standard plug in )
