This German ceiling or wall lamp from the 1970s exemplifies lighting where raw geometric form meets a richly textured material. The diamond-shaped shade is crafted from thick, pressed glass with a pronounced three-dimensional surface that amplifies the play of light and shadow. The cool-toned, transparent glass is paired with a central, golden metallic accent visible through the shade, adding visual depth and an interplay of warm and cold tones. Surrounding the center, a ring of raised, bubble-like motifs enhances the decorative appeal. The sharply defined edges and robust overall construction evoke a touch of brutalism within the mid-century modern aesthetic. The fixture can be used both as a ceiling lamp or as a wall sconce. Technical features include a new ceramic socket for full functionality. The lamp is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage or signs of wear.This lamp resonates with the voice of the 1970s, an era when modernism grew bolder in its textures and embraced geometric simplicity. The thick, partially frosted and pressed glass seems to speak of a fascination with light that is dispersed rather than dominant, softly reflecting across the faceted surface. The golden center—like a captured ray of sunlight—contrasts with the cool clarity of the glass, creating a sense of warmth held within an architectural block. The piece recalls how even a straightforward form can become a stage for a sensual interplay of light and tactile relief.The lamp can be paired with mid-century
