About the Item

Characterized by clean lines, the elegant, warm wood, and the shiny brass, the Swedish Modern lighting models of Boréns Borås are eternally timeless and timely. With its soft edges and intuitive functionality, this model is especially exemplary of Scandinavian mid-century modern design. Like many of the decade’s designs, this table lamp masterfully pairs different materials and textures. The pairing of brass and oak wood creates an interesting visual effect, where the organic and traditional look of wood meets the modern look of brass. Swedish lighting manufacturers were masters of creating designs with great texture variety as this rare “B8449” table lamp shows. The brass lampshade “crowns” the brass base and oak neck beautifully. It is in the so-called ‘drum’ shape which adds a modern touch compared to empire shades. This lamp’s wide-brimmed, polished brass shade creates both decorative and functional lighting. It appears as if the elongated wood neck pierces through the shade, ending in a “button” at the top. The beautiful colour and texture of the brass and oak neck are further emphasized when the light is turned on by the switch on the base. The two bulbs provide warm light, which brings a soft ambience, bringing a touch of Scandinavian style to any space. Adding illumination to a living space with this stylish table lamp will not only improve the ambience, it will also provide useful task lighting for those late nights. Apart from the aesthetics, the quality of this table lamp is also true to its Scandinavian heritage and to the name: Boréns Borås. Condition: In vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Some visible marks and patina on the brass; visible chip of the lacquer on the underside of the shade. Dimensions: 14.17 in ⌀ x 20.27 in H 36 cm ⌀ x 51.5 cm H
