Stoja ceiling lamp, designed by ettore sottsass for ikea, 1990s
dimensions:
height – 19 cm
diameter – 45 cm
condition: very good, with minor signs of use. The lamp is fully functional and ready to be installed.
the stoja ceiling lamp is a distinctive example of 1990s postmodern design, created by ettore sottsass, one of the most influential designers of the 20th century who collaborated with ikea. The lamp is made of lacquered metal and a milky plastic diffuser that softly disperses the light, creating a warm and pleasant atmosphere in the interior. The dominant light base is contrasted with bold, geometric accents in red, yellow, and blue—direct references to the memphis style.
the form of the lamp is expressive yet perfectly balanced. The central, sculptural shade is set on a circular base, while the contrasting details serve both decorative and structural functions. The overall impression is closer to a small wall or ceiling sculpture than a conventional light fixture, which is a hallmark of sottsass’s design language.
the lamp fits seamlessly into modern, postmodern, eclectic, and contemporary interiors. It works well in a living room, hallway, stairwell, or office space, serving both as a functional light source and a strong stylistic statement.
dating from the 1990s, the lamp represents a period when ikea collaborated with renowned designers, bringing distinctive, author-driven designs into mass production. Today, the stoja model is valued by design collectors as a successful example of the democratization of high-quality design. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
