Vintage Lamps

Nostalgic charm with retro lamps

With retro light bulbs and perfect vintage lights, you can revive the charm of bygone times and create a stylish look for your living spaces. Not only in fashion is there an increasing emphasis on the chic appearance of the past, but retro has never been as modern in home design as it is today.

Which decade do you wish for?

Whether the 30s, 50s, or 70s – they are all making a comeback and becoming design highlights, as vintage lamps, shabby chic lights, or industrial style lighting give rooms character and a certain charm that is very much on trend.

Old becomes modern! Vintage lamps at skapetze®!

The vintage look is continuously gaining ground

What is actually vintage? Vintage means something like “made to look old” and refers back to the 30s up to the late 70s. For various types of living spaces, vintage lamps are a beautiful and extraordinary eye-catcher.

Lamps in vintage look, also called shabby chic lamps or retro lights, impress not only with their industrial lamp appearance but also with their robust and solid design.

Especially the combination with other vintage furniture or decorations, even with so-called DIY (“Do it yourself”) ideas, creates a beautiful and harmonious overall picture. Likewise, the conscious contrast of very minimalist, modern furnishings and retro lamps as a highlight can be a great living trend.

What characterizes vintage lights?

Characteristic features of vintage lamps include chipped paint, copper or pastel colors, materials like wood or stainless steel, or a clear design language – the retro and industrial style is therefore very diverse.

Often, a deliberately worn design is added, which invites DIY projects and building vintage lamps yourself.

Retro lamps for every home

Whether retro lights for living rooms, hallways, bedrooms, offices, kitchens, or hobby rooms – vintage or retro is for many not just a style of furnishing, but even a felt way of life. Especially for classic interior design or country-style kitchens, vintage lamps can become eye-catchers and promise a special aura.

Our LED vintage lights can be placed both as a style break in modern furnished apartments and houses, as well as in business offices and decorative shops for skillful lighting of products and goods.

Retro in gastronomy

In gastronomy, retro lamps also create a very special atmosphere and are sure to impress guests. The vintage charm often recalls the simply designed and usually bright or pastel-colored Scandinavian interior style; however, retro or industrial design lamps can also become the most striking area in the room through skillful staging.

skapetze® DIY light idea – build your own retro lamps

Creative minds, take note! All craft enthusiasts can build their own retro lamps. All you need is a wooden beam, a reclaimed wood beam looks particularly good, combined with rope lamps.

Simply wrap the rope lights around the wooden beam and let the lamps hang down at different heights. For this, we can recommend our s.LUCE rope hanging lamp. However, you can also save yourself the work and get a similar variant (hanging lamp “Arbor”) as a ready-made complete version from our skapetze® online shop.
