ABOUT PRODUCTID 30746
This vintage chandelier, produced in the 1960s by Elektrotechniczna Spółdzielnia Inwalidów in Nowa Huta, Poland, exemplifies Space Age design from the late modernist era. The construction features a metal frame and black suspension rod with a canopy, surrounded by modular, arching plastic lamellae. The primary color is a saturated yellow, complemented by creamy white accents, while the surface of the plastic elements has a matte, vertically ribbed texture. The overall shape is sculptural and three-dimensional, circular in form, with a diameter of 50 cm and a total height of 60 cm. The chandelier is preserved in its original, unrestored vintage condition, showing visible traces of use: minor discoloration, patina on the metal parts, and the absence of two or three plastic lamellae, which does not significantly affect the overall visual impression. Condition rated as good.
The geometric and modular form of the chandelier captures the spirit of the 1960s—a time when Polish design boldly experimented with new materials and techniques, drawing inspiration from global modernism and cosmic futurism. The lamp seems to tell a story of the era’s optimism, where color and structure shaped the rhythm of daily life. The yellow lamellae, reminiscent of rays of light, create a radiant aura, while the gentle patina and subtle missing elements reveal the authentic history of a piece that has witnessed shifting tastes and technologies.
This chandelier can be suspended in a mid-century modern living room or a vintage collector’s interior, where it will serve as a strong, colorful accent. It pairs well with furniture defined by simple, geometric lines, low wood or lacquered sideboards, and accessories in white, black, or shades of gray. It may also be combined with minimalist lighting fixtures or era-appropriate graphics to highlight its sculptural, slightly avant-garde presence within the space.
