Vintage lamps
Lighting ideas in a trendy nostalgic lookThe vintage look is a true evergreen among trend-conscious interior fans - it brings carefully portioned flea market charm into our living spaces. The difference between a vintage light and a found object in grandma's attic: They are actually new. Equipped with the latest energy-saving LED technology, they are simply trimmed to look old - with artificially created signs of use such as flaking paint, scratches, rust, patina or used-look fabrics and patterns.

Key facts about vintage chic
)
Vintage originally referred to selected wines of a vintage. The term, which originates from the language of winegrowers, quickly came to be used for clothing, furniture and accessories, so that found objects from past decades with a special charm were labelled vintage. The look of aged it-pieces quickly found its way into the design studios, so that today deliberately old-fashioned lights are very popular.
)
The vintage chic style embraces all materials that can be used to create a used look. This could be chipped paint or transparent glass reminiscent of a flower vase from a bygone era. When it comes to colour, light shades such as white, cream and grey are just as popular as pastel nuances. But bright colours and metallic surfaces also characterise the look.

The difference is the signs of use. With vintage, these are the core element that gives it its charm.Retro luminaires, on the other hand, don't look used or second-hand, but as if they came straight from decades gone by. Of course, luminaire designs can also pay homage to the Fifties and still have chipped paint. Then the creative journey back in time is perfect.

Shabby chic could be described as the little sister of vintage style. His trademark: Used look XXL. Peeling paint, ceramics and uneven and translucent painted wood in light colours are an integral part of the look. Light colours also define the shabby flair, creating a romantic note in the ambience and showing the vintage style from its feminine side. This facet of vintage has no place for massive industrial styles.
