ABOUT PRODUCTID 11967
This pendant lamp from the 1960s, attributed to Karel Wolf and designed for the Valasske Mezirici glassworks in Czechoslovakia, exemplifies mid-century modern sensibility. The shade is crafted from thick, triple-layered glass in a matte, cool white, emphasizing both durability and a pared-back aesthetic. Its surface is smooth and unadorned, while the wide, gently flared body tapers fluidly at the top and bottom, echoing the dynamic lines of space-age design. The lamp hangs from a polished metal rod, introducing a subtle industrial contrast to the purity of the glass. There are no decorative patterns or color accents—form and material are the sole protagonists. The lamp is in very good condition, with no visible traces of wear, damage, or restoration. All components, including the glass shade and metal suspension, are authentic and well preserved.This lighting fixture channels the spirit of an era captivated by space exploration and modernist ideals. Its silhouette, stripped of ornament, quietly narrates the ambitions of the atomic age—light envisioned as both functional tool and universal language. The cool white glass and soft geometric form foster a sense of calm and focus, as if the lamp were inviting the room to pause and reflect. The polished metal rod lends a technical note, not austere but rather reminiscent of the optimistic engineering of the time.Such a pendant lamp would suit interiors shaped by mid-century modern influences or curated, collector’s spaces where authenticity is valued. It could be paired with low teak furniture, geometric rugs, or a minimalist sofa with clean lines. The lamp also performs well in more eclectic settings—against a deep green or navy wall, the matte white glass becomes a distinct visual anchor. Consider combining it with other glass or metal accents to reinforce its modernist provenance.
