ABOUT PRODUCTID 11974
This 1960s pendant lamp, attributed to Karel Wolf, exemplifies Czechoslovakian modernist design and craftsmanship. The shade is crafted from thick, triple-layered glass with a smooth, matte white surface encircled by a repeating zigzag pattern of small golden-brown dots. Its geometric silhouette—featuring a wide, gently rounded upper rim and a more cylindrical lower section—reflects the disciplined aesthetic of the mid-century modern era. The lamp is suspended from a long, slender steel rod with a black finish, ending in a matching black ceiling mount. All elements appear original with no visible restoration; the lamp remains in good condition, showing only minor, age-appropriate wear and no cracks or chips.The form of this lamp evokes the spirit of postwar Czechoslovakia, when designers sought modernity through simplicity and geometric clarity. The matte glass softens and diffuses the light evenly, while the golden-brown dotted motif introduces a rhythmic accent—like a visual code of the era, ordered yet light, as if the shade were quietly recalling the optimism and harmony of the 1960s. The pattern suggests both structure and subtle playfulness, inviting a sense of calm modernity.This lamp could serve as a focal point above a dining table or in a living room, where its matte white finish and golden accents provide gentle, diffused illumination. It would suit mid-century modern interiors, paired with wooden furniture in clean lines, upholstered seating in muted colors, or era-appropriate minimalist accessories. Consider combining it with graphic ceramics or warm-toned glassware to highlight its origins and understated character.
