About the Item
This rare ceiling lamp, crafted in the style of Hans Bergström, was produced in Sweden during the 1950s, exemplifying the elegance of mid-century Scandinavian lighting design. It features a distinctive combination of brass and fabric materials, with three conical pendant shades suspended from a central brass canopy. The shades have a slightly tapered form, with a perforated lower edge and small pinhole perforations that allow for a soft, diffused light effect when illuminated.
The lamp’s brass surface has developed a rich, warm patina over the years, a hallmark of well-preserved vintage lighting. This patina adds character and depth to the piece, enhancing its visual appeal and contributing to its historical charm. The brass shades are suspended by twisted fabric cords, which not only add to the lamp’s design but also offer flexibility in height adjustment.
The perforated details of the shades are a notable feature of the lamp. When lit, the small holes in the surface allow light to escape in a gentle, atmospheric manner, creating a star-like effect that adds a unique, warm ambiance to any space. This is an example of the Scandinavian design philosophy that focuses on functional aesthetics, where every detail serves a purpose while maintaining an elegant and minimalist form.
Hans Bergström, known for his contributions to Swedish lighting design, influenced many pieces from this era. Though the lamp is in the style of Bergström, its production by an unnamed Swedish manufacturer of the time speaks to the quality and craftsmanship that was prevalent in mid-century Scandinavian design. The lamp’s dimensions, 38 cm in diameter and 130 cm in height, make it an ideal fixture for larger rooms or spaces that require a statement lighting piece.
In its current condition, the lamp is in excellent vintage condition, with only natural signs of wear, such as the patina on the brass, which only adds to its authenticity and charm. It stands as a timeless example of mid-century Scandinavian design, with both functional and artistic appeal.
