Drawing upon one of Jung’s existing glass shades, Johansson-Pape developed model 1088, also known as the Jälleenrakennusvalaisin (‘Reconstruction Lamp’), by introducing a broad, delicately constructed outer shade surrounding the original glass form. The design emerged during Finland’s wartime and postwar reconstruction years, when severe shortages of metal and other conventional manufacturing materials encouraged designers to explore alternative resources, including wood, paper, and natural fibers. These limitations fostered a spirit of experimentation and collaboration among designers and craftspeople, giving rise to a softer, nature-inspired aesthetic with a subtle sense of romanticism. Within this context, Johansson-Pape transformed the practical constraints of the period into an inventive lighting design, uniting Jung’s refined glasswork with an innovative approach to materials, texture, and light. This particular example features an elegant, softly tapered glass diffuser in a delicate honey hue, adorned with hand-painted leaf motifs. When illuminated, the delicate foliage becomes more pronounced in the warm, diffused glow, lending the lamp a subtle ornamental quality. Surrounding the glass diffuser is a broad, shallow conical shade, intricately constructed from slender wooden stalks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Morentz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55559142768983,"sku":null,"price":10800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5187\/1548\/files\/50119919_St_P_5.jpg?v=1792762884","url":"https:\/\/www.morentz.com\/products\/lisa-johansson-pape-for-orno-1088-pendant-lamp-with-hand-painted-leaves","provider":"Morentz","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
