1920s lamps: glamorous extravagance with a modern twist

Artistic designs, aesthetics, and opulence: The style of the Golden Twenties is extraordinary and anything but boring! The defining characteristics of that era are experiencing a true renaissance in contemporary design and add a touch of flair to any interior style. We’d like to introduce you to our most beautiful 1920s lamps, which will give your home a nostalgic vibe.

Stylistic elements of the luxurious 1920s

The 1920s are characterised by extravagance and Gatsby-style glamour. Lavish parties, opulent furniture and a life of luxury were the norm in affluent circles. The architecture and style of the 1920s were characterised by:

• Houses and buildings with symmetrical shapes and clear lines,
• robust materials such as chrome, brass, ebony, steel, glass and metal with glossy polishes and finishes or in a matt design,
• interiors featuring geometric and exotic patterns, colours such as gold and opulent décor such as bronze figurines.

The style of the 1920s is also known as Art Deco, which reached its peak during this period: in principle, Art Deco is not a distinct style with precise defining features, but rather an ambivalent development at the dawn of a new era, creating a fusion of classicism and extraordinary opulence. It thus stands in contrast to Art Nouveau, which was characterised by curved forms from the mid-19th century until it was superseded by Art Deco.
