About the Item
A beautiful five-arm ceiling lamp made by VP, a Finnish lamp mid-century lamp manufacturer, from the late 1950s or early 1960s, featuring hand-made glass shades and an elegant brass structure with spring decoration. This lamp captures the warm, decorative side of Finnish mid-century lighting design, where functional forms were paired with subtle ornamentation and craftsmanship.
The five opaline glass shades are delicately painted with a golden colour and have a wavy mouth mimicing a flower bud that gives the lamp a gentle sense of movement. Their shades sit harmoniously on the curved brass arms, creating a balanced silhouette that feels both refined and inviting. The center piece, bringing all together is emphasized with spring brass elements further adding to the decorative appeal of the lamp.
The combination of warm brass and creamy hand-decorated glass gives the piece a distinctly nostalgic atmosphere, reminiscent of Finnish homes from the period. It provides five light sources, offering both good illumination and a soft ambient glow when fitted with lower-intensity bulbs. The lamp is ideal for dining areas, living rooms, or any interior seeking a touch of mid-century elegance without becoming overly minimal.
This is a charming and well-preserved example of Finnish work that is rather rare to see these days. It showcases the hand-crafted details and decorative sensibility that defined Finnish lighting in the 1950s and 1960s. It brings warmth, character, and a gentle sophistication to any room. The light is stamped by the manufacturer.
