Smoked glass lamp as a retro it-piece
Absolute must-have: Smoked glass pendant lightWhat makes smoked glass lamps so special is their multifaceted nature and their fascinating, glare-free lighting effect. In terms of design, the special glass lamps range from purist to downright theatrical. They conquer living room, dining room and kitchen as well as hallways and guest rooms. Smoked glass pendant lights, for example, are a stylish eye-catcher above the dining table or kitchen counter, while table or floor lamps made of tinted glass, for example, skilfully add flair to the reading corner.
Interesting facts about smoked glass
)
Metals are added to clear glass during the melting process to create the transparent smoky grey look. Depending on the composition, different shades can be achieved - from light grey to deep anthracite or amber. Colour gradients are also possible. The metal components create iridescent, shimmering light, whereby the view of the filament illuminant is gently revealed depending on the intensity of the tint. Double shades, such as in the Pille luminaire series from Molto Luce, also ensure fascinating light distribution.

The smoked glass trend has its origins in the 1960s and therefore fits in perfectly with the popular retro look. With the current comeback, designers are impressively demonstrating what is possible when it comes to smoked glass: single and multi-flame models impress with increasingly playful facets, such as embossed glass with diamond structures or shades with pearls, as in Foscarini's Caboche luminaire series. Absolutely trendy: grooved smoked glass like the Greenwich luminaire series from Eco-Light.

Smoked glass lamps can not only be combined with the retro look - they go with a wide range of interior styles from industrial to Scandi and puristic chic. Depending on the design, smoked glass can also have a glamorous appearance or contrast with natural materials. In terms of shape, smoked glass spheres are just as stylish as cylindrical shapes. But floral or organic designs and smoky grey crystal prisms are also possible - as with the Clarissa range from Searchlight.

Smoked glass pendant lights
A luminous delight with single and multiple flamesThe elegance that glass pendant luminaires bring to living spaces is not lost in their specification with smoked glass. Depending on the design and finish, they can be combined with numerous styles from Retro and Vintage to Scandi and Industrial. Smoked glass pendant lamps in the dining room above the table are a special eye-catcher - with single or multiple lights depending on the table shape and length. In multi-flame models, the individual shades can be positioned in a line or at different heights to create the desired effect.

Smoked glass ceiling lights
Exclusivity through shimmering metal coloursSmoked glass shades add a touch of luxury and glamour to general lighting. The exclusivity of the trendy glass luminaires is further emphasised in elegant combinations with metals, often in shimmering brass and copper tones. The same applies to ceiling lights: while single-flame models stand proudly on their own and guarantee an eye-catching effect, multi-flame models have the advantage of optimally distributing the light in the room in addition to their attractive appearance. Spotlights, for example, can be individually aligned to highlight specific areas with their pleasant warm white light.

Smoked glass table lamps
Ambient light with a fascinating metallic glowSmoked glass table lamps are decorative it-pieces that create a cosy lighting atmosphere. The range is wide: from shades that allow a glare-free view of the nostalgic filament lamp thanks to smoked glass tinting to shades that conceal another shade as a diffuser. Smoked glass light sources also go wonderfully with a pure base - for example in a trendy material mix with marble or terrazzo.

Light flair with a sixties vibeWith their iridescent light, floor lamps with tinted smoked glass shades lend the living room a cosy ambience in 60s style. Large, individual umbrellas work just as well as a bundle of many small umbrellas that originate from a single frame. As the metallic shimmering, smoky grey shade gently reveals the light source, filament lamps are the perfect combination for an absolutely nostalgic feel-good flair.

Smoked glass wall lights
Flair through exciting reflectionsSmoked glass wall lights are not only an eye-catching design feature, but also guarantee targeted, appealing lighting. Placed next to each other at certain intervals, they can elegantly illuminate staircases and long corridors. But they also create flair in living room or dining room on their own and, depending on the shape and embossing, also create exciting reflections on the wall.

Pure nostalgia in retro styleNot only do smoked glass lampshades elegantly reveal nostalgic filament lamps thanks to their transparent appearance. Filament lamps themselves can come directly with smoked glass bulbs, making the lampshade unnecessary. The retro lamps look just as warm and cosy in a multi-flame bundle as they do individually - either hanging in a socket or as a stylish table lamp, for example with a concrete base in industrial chic.
