ABOUT PRODUCTID 11968
This 1960s pendant lamp is attributed to Karel Wolf, the chief designer at the Valasske Mezirici glassworks in Czechoslovakia. Its construction centers on a striking shade made of thick, triple-layered opaline glass in a pure, cool white tone, with a matte surface that softly diffuses the light. The shade stands out for its geometric, sculptural silhouette, featuring pronounced, symmetrical undulating curves—hallmarks of mid-century modern design from that era. The lamp is suspended from a slender, polished steel rod ending with a black ceiling canopy. The monochromatic palette and minimalist form emphasize its versatile character. The entire piece is preserved in good condition, with only minor age-appropriate signs of use—no damage, chips, or evidence of restoration.The form of this lamp tells the story of Central European modernism: a pure line from the 1960s, where function meets the expressive plasticity of glass. The matte finish softens the light, creating a gentle glow, while the undulating curves recall the dynamism and optimism of the era. The lamp captures the spirit of material and lighting experiments of its time—as if it suggests that everyday life deserves a sculptural gesture, even above the living room table.This lamp can be used above a dining table, as a centerpiece in a living room, or in an entryway, where its sculptural form naturally draws the eye. It pairs well with furnishings featuring clean lines, such as a teak sideboard or 1960s upholstered armchairs. Interiors with a mid-century modern, Scandinavian, or contemporary spirit will complement it best—especially those with glass, metal, and natural wood accents. It is worth combining with smooth-textured, neutral textiles, allowing the lamp's white tone to highlight subtle nuances in the surroundings.
