Pair of Swedish Wall Lights in Patinated Copper with Glass

Pair of wall lights, copper, blown glass, Sweden, 1940s

These refined Swedish wall lamps from the 1940s display a restrained yet expressive design characteristic of the Scandinavian modern tradition. Executed in patinated copper, each fixture features a slender horizontal arm supporting a lantern-shaped shade of hand-blown glass.

The softly tapered glass is enriched with small air bubbles, adding depth and texture while gently diffusing the light into a warm, atmospheric glow. The dark patinated copper provides a subtle contrast to the luminous glass, emphasizing the clean geometry of the design. A delicate finial crowns each shade, lending the lamps an elegant architectural character.

With their balanced proportions, honest materials and understated detailing, these wall lamps closely reflect the aesthetic associated with the work of Hans Bergström, combining functional simplicity with a timeless decorative quality. They are equally suited as ambient lighting in both classic and contemporary interiors as well as outdoors.

Please be informed that making the lamps suitable for long-term outdoor use will incur additional costs. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
