About the Item

A striking Swedish Modern onion-shaped pendant lamp, probably designed by Harald Notini for the renowned Swedish manufacturer Arvid Böhlmarks Lampfabrik, circa 1930s. The elegant hand-blown double-layered glass shade features a softly satin-finished inner surface and an outer layer decorated with alternating frosted vertical stripes, creating a beautiful interplay of light and shadow when illuminated. Its gracefully tapered, onion-shaped silhouette is characteristic of Swedish Modern lighting from the period, balancing understated elegance with refined craftsmanship. The shade is suspended from a chrome-plated brass rod and retains its original domed ceiling canopy, completing the clean and sophisticated design. A timeless Scandinavian pendant of exceptional quality, equally suited to both period and contemporary interiors. The lighting manufacturer Arvid Böhlmarks Lampfabrik was founded in 1872 in the Swedish capital, Stockholm. Originally an importer of paraffin lamps, the company soon began producing kerosene heaters. By the late 1880s, Böhlmarks had become the first Swedish manufacturer of paraffin lamps. In 1894, the company acquired the Pukeberg glassworks, which produced both lampshades and household glassware. In 1904, Böhlmarks began manufacturing electric lighting fixtures—a product line that soon replaced traditional oil and paraffin lamps. Over the years, many prominent designers worked with the company, including Gunnar Asplund, Harald Notini, and Sigurd Lewerentz. The company was dissolved in 1977.
