About the Item
Charming 1950s German Carved Wood Mountaineer Pendant Lamp with Yellow Glass Lantern
This delightful German figural pendant lamp from the 1950s features a meticulously hand-carved mountaineer, crafted from linden wood and full of whimsical character. The smiling figure, clad in traditional Alpine attire, is shown mid-climb, grasping a rope with one hand while holding an ornate lantern in the other. The lantern itself is made of metal with warm yellow glass panels that create a cozy, inviting glow when lit.
The figure is finished in natural, earthy tones—soft brown hues of the jacket and boots, a dusty rose for the shorts, and subtle flesh tones for the face and limbs. These hand-applied finishes enhance the texture and lifelike quality of the carving. An additional charming detail: the figure carries a small wooden ice axe that doubles as a pen, adding a playful touch.
The ceiling canopy is carved in the shape of an Alpine Edelweiss flower, enhancing the mountain-themed aesthetic and lending the piece a unique sculptural quality.
• Total height: approx. 56 cm / 22 inches
• Figure width: approx. 18 cm / 7 inches
• Figure depth: approx. 16 cm / 6.3 inches
The pendant lamp evokes the beauty and nostalgia of the Bavarian Alps and is sure to be a conversation piece in any interior. A perfect gift for mountain lovers or collectors of Black Forest carvings.
Fitted with a socket for an E14-size light bulb.
In good vintage condition with light signs of age and wear.
As with all vintage or antique lighting, we recommend installation by a qualified electrician.
