Unique wall lamp from the middle of the 20th century. This style of architecture, art and interior is called “Stalin’s Empire” – a style that became popular and promoted in the 1930s – 1950s. The lamp is made of light metal (presumably silumin or aluminum), has a silver color. It was repainted in the Soviet years, as it hung in a government building in the very center of the capital of Ukraine – Kyiv. These lamps were produced in the Belarusian city of Lida especially for Soviet government buildings in extremely small quantities(inscriptions on the back of the lamp indicate this). Height – 11 1/2 (29 cm). Weight – 1065 gr. An extra rare and interesting part of the past. Every day there are fewer of them, suitable as a collection, for a gift or as a good deal in the future.
