Mid century lighting is the lamps, pendants and fixtures in the mid-century style, spare sculptural forms in brass, enamel and teak that treat a light as an object. At Eleish Van Breems Home we stock mid century lighting for a modern room; a design house sits under Louis Poulsen lighting.
Which details matter on a vintage mid century lamp?
When choosing a vintage mid century lamp, consider the relationship between the shade, base, proportions and overall design, with the wider category sitting under vintage lighting. Match the scale and character of the lamp to its intended setting and the surrounding furniture.
How does mid century lighting anchor a modern room?
Mid century lighting anchors a modern room as one sculptural fixture, a pendant over a table or a shapely lamp on a sideboard, reading as much as art as light beside mid century modern furniture. Let the fitting be the feature and keep the surrounding scheme calm.
How should mid century lighting be cared for?
Mid century lighting benefits from regular dusting with a soft cloth, with care appropriate to materials such as enamel, brass and teak; finer wall pieces sit under luxury sconces. Keep the fittings away from excess moisture and strong heat, and follow the appropriate guidance for the individual fixture.
