Pair of Glass Wall Lamps by Glashütte Limburg, Germany 1970s

Creator: Glashütte Limburg
Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
Glashütte Limburg is a German manufacturer, where impeccable craftsmanship remained in the focus throughout the past decades. While the designer of this model is unknown, many lamps of the company were created by the Designabteilung Glashütte Limburg (design department) or Atelier Glashütte Limburg.

These Glashütte Limburg wall lamps are a subtle yet playful example of the sleek minimalism of the mid-century modern style. Early 1970s design accelerated the emergence of bold personal expression with an explosion of new shapes and textures to saturate households. This model’s main feature is its material, not its shape, as they are made of high-quality glass. The opal glass, with its milky translucence, evokes a sense of ethereal beauty and warmth, transforming any space into a haven of ambient illumination. At its most basic level, these lamps combine sleek lines with organic shapes, using new materials and methods to re-imagine traditional pieces. This model is mounted so that the body of the fixture is hidden, leaving only the shades on top of the surface. The glass’s shape truly stands out thanks to this, especially when illuminated. Since these wall lamps combine a traditional shape with innovative, modern touches, the result is a look that has a both timeless and contemporary feel to it. They are a little jewel that is sure to bring interest to any wall surface and a cosy, atmospheric lighting.

Adding illumination to a living space with this pair of beautiful wall lamps will not only improve the ambience, it will also bring a piece of design history to the space. Apart from the aesthetics, the quality of these lamps is true to its German heritage.
