Technique

Swedish handmade crochet lace wall sconces were a small-workshop signature of the 1960s–70s. This kind of shade is no longer commercially produced.

Why this is a collector piece

Handmade Swedish lace and crochet lampshades are no longer being produced. This style of shade was made by hand — crocheted or lace-worked — in Swedish homes and small workshops during the 1960s and 1970s golden age of Nordic craft. That generation of makers is gone. Comparable pieces on 1stDibs and Chairish are typically priced USD $560 – $2,350. We source directly at Swedish estates and pass the difference to you.
