AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This characterful vintage hanging lamp is a pronounced example of Space Age design from the 1960s–70s, executed in a clean cube shape that directly references the cubist ideology of that period.

The design is often referred to as a “dice lamp,” thanks to the rhythmically arranged, gold-colored plexiglass bumps on the sides. These elements give the lamp a playful, almost architectural character and at the same time create a subtle play of light when the lamp is in use.

The combination of lacquered metal and contrasting details fits perfectly with the Scandinavian design philosophy of functionality and form balance. The white interior provides a pleasant, diffuse light distribution, while the closed form allows the light to exit outward in a controlled and atmospheric way.

This lamp is not only a functional light source but also a sculptural object that comes into its own in a modern, minimalist, or vintage interior. It is lightly wired and ready for use.

Dimensions: H 23.5 cm x W 13 cm x D 13 cm

Weight: 369 grams

This item is in nicely preserved condition with minimal patina from age and use. It will be securely packed, shipped by registered mail, insured, and sent with tracking.

Seller's Story

I have a passion for vintage design, and my objects mainly come from Scandinavia. I seek out unique gems that are then offered to new owners through this platform. I ensure that the objects are very well packaged so they can arrive safely. I hope that, through my circular mission of sustainability, these beautiful objects can be given a second life, serving as a good example for many others.
