Vintage German DORIA Crackle Glass Pendant Lamp 1960s
This elegant vintage pendant lamp was produced by DORIA Leuchten, one of Germany’s most respected lighting manufacturers of the mid-20th century. DORIA was widely recognized for its refined use of decorative glass and solid metal construction, supplying both private interiors and high-quality architectural projects across Europe.
The lamp features a generously proportioned hand-blown crackle glass shade, whose textured surface softly diffuses the light and creates a warm, atmospheric glow. The organic glass texture is beautifully complemented by the brass-toned metal canopy and stem, resulting in a balanced and timeless mid-century composition. A particularly notable and less common detail is the rope-style, textile-wrapped suspension, finished with a decorative knot at the ceiling mount. This natural material detail introduces a subtle tactile contrast to the glass and metal elements and reflects the era’s experimentation with texture and craftsmanship.
The original textile cable and solid internal components further underline the lamp’s authentic vintage character and durability. Equally decorative and functional, this pendant works exceptionally well as a statement piece above a dining table, in a living area, or as ambient lighting in a refined modern, mid-century, or eclectic interior.
