This bedside lamp from 1950s Poland presents post-war Art Deco in a functional and balanced interpretation. The structure features a chrome-plated, circular base and an arched arm with a mirror-like finish, where visible screws highlight the solidity of its construction. The shade is made of white opaline glass with a slightly warm undertone, subtly conical and asymmetrical, adorned at the lower edge with two delicate horizontal lines in shades of beige and light brown. The overall palette is cool and neutral, contrasted by a cylindrical red switch set on a yellow mount, providing a vivid accent. The lamp’s proportions are compact, the design well-integrated, and the electrical system is fully operational. Condition: very good, with only minor surface scratches on the chrome and no significant damage or signs of restoration.The lamp’s form tells the story of Polish post-war everyday life, when the pursuit of modernity and the need for light met a restrained approach to ornamentation. Chrome surfaces reflect their surroundings, lending the piece an air of aspiration, while the opaline shade with subtle stripes brings softness, gently diffusing the light. The red switch is a small detail—almost a quiet note of joy, a signal that even in a simple object there is room for a touch of color and optimism.This lamp will fit well on a bedside table in a bedroom, especially among veneered furniture, geometric textiles, or minimalist graphics. It may be paired with other chrome or glass accents to emphasize its modernist roots, or used as a counterpoint to warmer materials such as wood, ceramics, or woollen throws. It is also worth combining it with a pendant lamp in a similar style to create a cohesive, intimate corner for reading or relaxation.
