ABOUT PRODUCTID 15547
This pendant lamp from the 1960s exemplifies Czech mid-century modern design, distinguished by its minimalist construction and considered use of materials. The shallow, disc-shaped shade is crafted from matte, ivory-white glass that diffusely scatters light. Its surface is adorned with a geometric, intersecting grid in glossy black and subtle orange accents, creating a rhythm of abstract decoration. The central stem and ceiling cup are formed from polished aluminum, imparting a silvery sheen and visual lightness that contrasts with the glass's soft matte finish. The proportions are deliberate: a broad, flat shade (approximately 49 cm diameter) is set against the slender supporting rod (height 37 cm). Visible mounting details reveal a modernist approach to construction, while the interplay of black, white, orange, and silver situates the lamp firmly within the color palette of the era. The piece is in excellent condition, showing minimal signs of use; both the glass and metal components remain free of chips or significant damage. This lamp channels the voice of 1960s Czech modernism: restraint of form is here paired with a subtle touch of decorativeness. Its geometric patterns recall the abstract graphic language of postwar artists, while the juxtaposition of matte glass and polished aluminum hints at a desire for light and clarity. The lamp seems destined for spaces in need of illumination; its diffuse glow casts a gentle grid of shadows across ceilings and walls—subdued yet unmistakably present. Each detail, from reflections on the metal to the touch of orange in the glass, brings back an era when design aspired
