This mid-century pendant lamp, produced by Inva Litomerice in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s, exemplifies the clarity and graphic language of the era’s design. The wide, gently convex shade is crafted from milky-white, satin-matte glass. Its surface is marked by dynamic, intersecting black and orange lines arranged in a starburst or crisscross pattern, a motif synonymous with Czech modernism of the time. The vivid orange detail functions as a focal accent, while the hand-painted quality of the decoration affirms its vintage authenticity. The lamp is suspended from a slender, chrome-plated rod with a bold, glossy black ceiling canopy and a visible concentric metal collar at the base, adding a note of industrial precision. Materials — glass and metal — reflect the high standards characteristic of period Czechoslovak lighting. The condition is very good, with no visible damage and only minor, age-appropriate traces on the surface, confirming the originality of this piece. The form of the lamp narrates the narrative of 1960s Czechoslovak modernism—a time when craftsmanship and graphical boldness converged. The milky glass diffuser brings to mind the optimism of the age, while the layered, energetic lines suggest a moment suspended, as if the essence of light and movement has been captured within translucent geometry. The softly frosted finish diffuses illumination, imparting the interior with a composed and subtly theatrical ambience beneath the watchful presence of industrial lines. This pendant can be positioned above a dining table or in a living space styled in the mid-century spirit. It may be paired with streamlined sofas
