Brass and Metal Ceiling Lamps by Taiba-Falkenberg Belysning, Sweden 1960s
-
Description
Falkenbergs Belysning is a Swedish lighting company that was founded in 1951 in the town of Falkenberg, hence the name. The company specialized in producing high-quality lighting fixtures for both residential and commercial settings, with a focus on innovative design and energy efficiency. These rare ceiling lamps materialize their ideals both in terms of visual and technical quality.
These ceiling lamps have an equally individualistic and innovative design dictated by the brass “tower of rings” comprising the lower structures of the cylindrical bodies. The upper half is more simple both in terms of design and material, being composed of white lacquered sheet metal. It serves as the perfect blank canvas to let the focus remain on the layered brass structures, each composed of seven rings in total. Together, they create a soft, warm light that is very pleasing to the eye as it brightens up the brass. The single light bulb in each lamp is “nested” in the structures like an egg, which is a lovely and stylish detail. Thanks to their height, the lamps stand out and thus draw the eyes naturally to the ceiling. The producer, Falkenbergs Belysning has a long history of collaborating with leading designers and architects to create innovative lighting solutions for a variety of settings. The company's commitment to quality craftsmanship and sustainable design that are also evident in these models, has earned them numerous awards and accolades, resulting in the company’s products being highly sought after by designers and homeowners around the world.
This pair’s design, while in many ways minimalistic, manages to be outstanding at the same time, manifesting one of the main Swedish design virtues. There is simply no angle from which these lamps are not attractive, assuring that they will be jewels of any ceiling.
