ABOUT PRODUCTID 44109
This early 20th-century pendant lamp exemplifies the Secessionist spirit, with a hand-shaped shade of milky white opaline glass distinguished by a striking ruby-red glass trim along the wavy edge. The umbrella-shaped shade opens downward, providing soft, wide light diffusion ideal for illuminating a dining table. The shade is set into a patinated brass gallery, secured with three screws, and topped with an original porcelain canopy—features characteristic of early electrified lighting. The textile-covered cord adds a subtle vintage touch, while the brass socket is compatible with standard E27 bulbs. The lamp has undergone professional conservation and displays no visible chips, cracks, or repairs. Condition: very good, free from blemishes or marks.This lamp carries the voice of an era when artisanal glassmaking converged with the dawn of electrification. The ruby edge, fused into the shade, recalls the artistry of historic glassworks and the boldness of combining color at the turn of the century. Brass and porcelain evoke the pragmatic beauty of early 20th-century interiors—a light that not only dispelled darkness but also narrated stories of family gatherings and the first moments of electric illumination.It can be suspended centrally above a wooden dining table, where the ruby trim will serve as a jeweled accent against natural materials. The lamp would also work well in a retro-inspired kitchen, a classic townhouse setting, or eclectic spaces with vintage and mid-century references. Pair it with ceramics, brass, or glassware of uniform texture to enhance the delicate interplay of shape and light.The lamp’s brass bulb holder is suited for E27 bulbs, including LED. The shade measures 26 cm in diameter and approximately 8 cm in height
