ABOUT PRODUCTID 14745
This pendant lamp, produced by VEB Beleuchtungsglaskombinat Görlitz in East Germany during the 1970s, exemplifies the distinctive aesthetics of Central European modernism from that era. The main shade takes the form of a large, slightly flattened globe fashioned from glossy white glass, retaining its original shine and even coloration. Encircling its surface is a horizontal band of hand-painted, stylised flowers, each composed of five wide petals in a gradient of warm yellow and orange, accented with red and darker hues – details distinctive of its period. The lamp features a simple white cord and a cylindrical ceiling canopy made of plastic, consistent with the straightforward yet practical character of 1970s industrial design. Its silhouette combines geometric clarity with subtle curves, clearly aligning it with the mid-century modern style. The lamp is preserved in very good condition; the glass is flawless, the painted motif remains vibrant, and all mounting components are original and fully functional. This lamp serves as a visual narrative of the optimistic side of 1970s design: white, pristine glass is animated by a decorative flourish – a lively band of florals reminiscent of vintage poster graphics, wrapping the globe with harmonic rhythm. It speaks of a time when bold coloration and graphic reduction lent warmth to everyday objects, turning functional lighting into a sculptural centerpiece. The hand-painted details – saturated oranges, yellows, and reds – gently offset the disciplined form of the glass, with light revealing the fullness
