this is not a standard retail lamp – it is a model designed for intensive use in an international-class hotel space. The lamps were part of a professional hotel interior design, as confirmed by the original label on the bottom of the base.
objects of this type rarely find their way onto the secondary market in private sales. They are an interesting example of hospitality sector furnishings from the turn of the 1990s/2000s – a period when hotel design began to combine functionality with a distinct, soft modernist form.
character and form
a model with a large, distinctive silhouette:
height 63 cm
width 50 cm
the wide, softly contoured shade made of plastic (not glass) gives the lamp visual lightness and durability, which was crucial in hotel applications.
the construction combines:
bent plywood in a natural wood tone
lacquered plastic elements in pastel blue
a metal stabilizing base
the form is organic, soft, and slightly futuristic.

why is this an interesting object?
- hotel origin – part of a professional interior design
- large, rare size
- stable construction adapted for intensive use
- recognizable lucid brand
- documented origin (novotel office airport warsaw sticker)

the lamps carry with them the history of the place – one of the main hotels at warsaw okęcie international airport. It is an interesting collector's item for those who appreciate objects with “provenance.”
