Štěpán Tabery Monumental Orange Opaline Glass Table Lamp

Price € 995,-

An exceptional and highly sculptural table lamp by Czech designer Štěpán Tabery, executed in luminous orange opaline glass during the golden age of Czechoslovak glassmaking. Produced by OPP Jihlava.
Distinguished by its commanding presence and refined silhouette, the lamp is formed as a continuous, hand-blown volume—its elegant, hourglass contour tapering and expanding with remarkable precision. The glass exhibits a rich, saturated crimson tone in its dormant state; once illuminated, it reveals a dramatic internal glow, shifting into gradients of fiery orange and ember red, emphasizing the depth and quality of the cased glass.
This interplay between mass and light is central to Tabery’s work and places the piece firmly within the sculptural lighting tradition that emerged from Central Europe in the 1960s–70s. The form evokes a subtle futurism—at once organic and architectural—making it as relevant in contemporary interiors as in historically driven collections.
Rare to encounter in this scale and colorway, the lamp stands as both a functional light source and a statement object of collectible design.
