Metal and Brass Mid-Century Ceiling Lamp, Scandinavia ca 1950s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
At its most basic level, Mid-Century Modern designs are known for juxtaposing sleek lines with comfortable, inviting shapes, using new materials and methods to re-imagine traditional pieces. This ceiling lamp is a perfect example of this, with a futuristic look that isn’t a complete departure from the past.

In general, Mid-Century Modern lamps are geometric, with globes, hourglasses, and rings being the dominant shapes. This model showcases an hourglass-like shape, or even a shape more comparable to a diabolo. The materials used give this lamp a sense of sophistication, the pairing of black lacquered metal and brass allows this model to seamlessly elevate any interior.

Unlike other aesthetic movements, Mid-Century Modern design is streamlined, while highlighting the materials used. The impression of this ceiling lamp is fresh, retro-tinged, and completely alluring with its dedication to quality and practicality wrapped up in beautiful design that never goes out of style.
