About the Item

Designers have been consistently inspired by nature in their work during the mid-century era, which makes curvilinear shapes an ongoing font of inspiration. Like in so many other areas, Scandinavian designers excelled in this as well, creating many of the most well-known silhouettes of mid-century lighting design. Characterized by clean lines, the elegant leather-wrapped rod, and intuitive functionality, this Swedish table lamp is eternally timeless and timely. Like many of the decade’s designs, this table lamp masterfully pairs materials and textures. The pairing of brass and leather creates an interesting visual effect, where the elegant and traditional look of the leather meets the modern aesthetic of the bright, polished brass. Swedish lighting designers were masters of creating designs with great texture variety as this table lamp shows. The elegant lampshade “crowns” the base and neck beautifully, topped with what appears to be the continuation of the rod. It appears as if the elongated neck pierced through the leather-wrapped middle part and the shade, which is a clever design element. The brass shade directs the light downwards and prevents any glare, and the beauty of the colour and texture of the brass and leather neck is emphasized even further when the light is turned on. The design offers interest from under the shade as well, with a curved bulb holder. The Swedish company, Falkenbergs Belysning was an excellent manufacturer of various lighting designs, with some models exhibited in museums to this day. Kalmar Läns Museum is among the Swedish institutions where the manufacturer’s lamps and their history is exhibited as part of the country’s cultural design heritage. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The brass has a beautiful patina with some marks. Dimensions: 13.38 in Ø x 16.92 in H 34 cm Ø x 43 cm H.
