This ceiling or wall lamp by Glashütte Limburg, produced in Germany during the 1970s, exemplifies the modernist approach to lighting characteristic of the era. Its design centers on a wide, flattened dome of opaline glass in a cool, milky white tone, topped with a polished brass, conical finial.

With a diameter of 41 cm and height of 27 cm, the lamp commands an architectural, sculptural presence. The E27 socket allows for versatile use, while the seamless transitions between glass and brass highlight the precision of its construction. The brass component shows localized wear to the gilding and a natural patina, evidencing its authentic vintage origin.

The design embodies an era that valued both utility and decorative impact, resulting
