This ceiling or wall lamp by Glashütte Limburg from the 1980s exemplifies German late modernist lighting. Its construction centers around a robust pressed glass shade, crystal-clear and colorless, crafted into a dense geometric grid of cube-like facets that create an intense prismatic diffusion—light is scattered across the sharply cut, glossy surface, evoking the shimmer of gems. The serrated outline of the rim further reinforces the sculptural, architectural presence of the lamp, while its metal base remains subtly concealed, serving a purely structural function. The lamp bears the manufacturer’s mark. It is preserved in very good condition, showing no signs of use, damage, or discoloration; the glass retains its full transparency and sheen.This light fixture captures the spirit of a decade enamored with geometry and material honesty. Each facet of the glass translates the architectural rhythm of the 1980s, with light refracting through the dense relief to form a luminous mosaic. It is as though a segment of a cityscape has been distilled into a small, tactile object—a quiet invitation to look at the everyday through the lens of precise, geometric order.The lamp can function as either a ceiling flush mount or a wall sconce, particularly suited for interiors inspired by late-twentieth-century architecture. It would perform well as a statement piece set against a smooth, neutral background, allowing the glass texture to take center stage. It could be paired with other mid-century modern or contemporary elements—think chromed accents, textured textiles, or the interplay of raw concrete and light wood.The dimensions are 20 cm in width and 10 cm in height. The piece is constructed from high-transparency pressed glass without color additives. Manufacturer: Glashütte Limburg. No special care is required; dusting with a soft, dry cloth will maintain the radiant, crystalline effect.
