About the Item
This very rare ceiling lamp, model 59, designed by Hans Bergström and produced by Ateljé Lyktan in Åhus, Sweden, during the 1940s, is a remarkable example of Scandinavian modernism. Combining sculptural elegance with functional design, the lamp is a testament to Bergström’s expertise in creating beautiful, minimalist lighting pieces. The shade is made from its original fabric, stretched over a delicate wire frame, resulting in a softly rounded, lantern-like form. Vertical seams run along the shade, emphasizing its organic shape and lending it a timeless aesthetic.
The lamp’s structure is supported by an intricate brass suspension system, which includes a gracefully shaped ceiling cup, three curved hooks, and fine steel wires. This design creates a floating appearance, allowing the shade to appear as though it hovers gently from the ceiling. The brass components have developed a rich patina over time, which not only adds authenticity to the lamp but also enhances its vintage charm. A distinctive curved brass hook at the upper section of the lamp connects the shade to the frame, further highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship for which Bergström was known.
Ateljé Lyktan, renowned for its innovative approach to lighting design, produced this lamp as part of their commitment to combining artistry with quality. The lamp reflects the influence of both traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship and early modernist design principles, where functionality and form are seamlessly integrated. The soft, diffused light that filters through the fabric shade creates a warm and inviting ambiance, making this lamp not only a functional light source but also a statement piece within any interior.
Remaining in its original condition, the lamp’s aged materials help preserve the historical integrity of its design, offering a glimpse into the era of 1940s Scandinavian lighting innovation. This piece is highly collectible and represents the legacy of Hans Bergström, capturing the essence of 20th-century Scandinavian lighting design.
