ABOUT PRODUCTID 9334
This pair of bedside lamps by Graewe, produced in Germany in the 1960s, exemplifies mid-century modern design that merges practicality with decorative appeal. Each lamp features ribbed glass and a dark, metallic-finished plastic base. The rounded, milky-white glass shades have a matte finish and a decorative, scalloped clear rim at the top, while the lower transparent ribbed section transitions smoothly into a cylindrical base. Bulb type E14 and inline cord switches ensure everyday convenience. Both lamps stand 20 cm tall, with a shade diameter of 12 cm. They are in good vintage condition—minor scratches and wear are visible on the bases, but there is no major damage, typical for objects of this age. These lamps bring forth the quiet voice of 1960s West Germany—a period when everyday objects adopted softer lines and organic detailing. The milky shade gently diffuses light, creating a soft, misty effect, while the ribbed, transparent glass adds a sense of sculptural lightness. The scalloped rim evokes delicate lace or frosted glass, highlighting the attention to detail and craftsmanship typical of the mid-century modern era. The lamps seem to whisper stories of domestic evenings, where light does not dominate but quietly accompanies in the background. The lamps could be paired with low bedside tables in light wood or lacquered MDF for a harmonious composition in a retro-inspired or modern minimalist bedroom. They would also work well in a living room—on a console or sideboard, surrounded by geometric mirrors and ceramic accents from the period. Combining them with
