Upgrade your retro lighting with true classics
Challenging preconceptions in their own time, numerous iconic vintage lamps have left a mark in the world of interior design. We at Franckly are proud to showcase the work of pioneering designers within the realm of vintage lighting. Below you’ll find some of our top picks to look out for when you’re on the hunt for used lighting that is guaranteed to look good decades from now.
Showcasing the much-loved aesthetics of Alvar Aalto, the sculptural Aalto pendant light A331 is constructed from multiple rows of perforated steel rings. Known to many as the “Beehive” because of its distinctive form, Artek's A331 lamp was designed in 1953 to bring light to the University of Jyväskylä, with modern styling in mind. The striking pendant light commands attention and provides warm hues, making it perfectly suited to the living room or on top of your dining table.
If you’re looking for eye-catching vintage light fixtures, the effortlessly stylish Flos 2097/30 chandelier is a strong contender. This impressive retro lamp was designed by Gino Sarfatti in 1958 for the Italian brand Flos, known for designs that challenge expectations. The vintage 2097/30 chandelier features a cluster of 30 bulbs – and it isn’t afraid to showcase the freely flowing cords, taking on influences from vintage industrial lighting.
Designed in 1977 by Vico Magistretti for Oluce, the Atollo table lamp is a revolutionary take on the classic bedside lamp. This reimagined vintage table lamp showcases an intriguing mixture of geometric shapes, making for an evergreen Italian design icon when it comes to vintage light fixtures. It comes as no surprise that the distinctive Oluce Atollo table lamp has won several awards, including the Compasso d'Oro in 1979.
Our top tips on vintage light fixtures
Looking for vintage lighting to enliven your living room or kitchen? If you’re in need of discreet general lighting, you can’t go wrong with vintage flush ceiling lights that highlight the best in your home. When you want to set a bolder tone, opt for striking vintage pendant lighting to add a true statement piece – perhaps the roughness of vintage industrial lighting could be just the thing to zest up your living space.
