This sculptural piece features a vivid ruby red glass core encased in thick, clear crystal, creating a dramatic sense of depth and luminosity—hallmarks of Orrefors’ refined glassmaking. The elegant tapered form is accentuated by a brass neck fitting, adding warmth and contrast to the cool clarity of the crystal. The interplay between the deep red interior and the outer clear casing gives the lamp a jewel-like presence, equally compelling lit or unlit. A quintessential example of Scandinavian modern design, this lamp combines minimalism with expressive materiality. Ideal as a statement piece in both modern and classic interiors. Signed to the underside: Orrefors. Lampshade shown for presentation only (not included).
