ABOUT PRODUCTID 10692
This cascading pendant lamp from the 1980s exemplifies thoughtful mid-century modern design, featuring five individual light sources suspended at varying heights from a round ceiling mount. All visible metal elements—including the ceiling plate, slender cords, and dome-shaped shades—are finished in a consistent, warm satin gold with a soft sheen that is neither matte nor overly glossy. The shades have smooth, rounded edges and are suspended on delicate cords, lending the composition a sense of lightness and visual harmony. The construction is free from decorative accents, focusing on geometric clarity and balanced proportions. The lamp measures up to 150 cm in height, 40 cm in width, and each shade has a diameter of 16.5 cm. The condition is good, with visible oxidation and minor scratches on the shades, typical for pieces from this era. This lamp tells the story of the 1980s—a time when simplicity and functional elegance gave way to softer lines and the warmth of metallic finishes. The satin gold surface recalls the atmosphere of living rooms from that decade, where light was meant to spread gently, not overpowering the space but offering subtle reflections on smooth metal. The cascading arrangement of the shades speaks of a search for balance between order and freedom, and the gentle patina on the metal discreetly highlights the authenticity and maturity of the design. The lamp would work well suspended above a seating area in a spacious living room with a high ceiling, where its cascade effect plays the part of a three-dimensional light sculpture. It can be paired with a sofa featuring clean lines and a side table in walnut veneer or glass to emphasize its mid-century modern character. Finishing touches could include dark wood accents, geometric artwork on the walls, and neutral textiles that allow the lamp’s soft light and golden reflections to stand out.
