The design quickly gained popularity and stayed in production for many years. Its most recognizable feature, the glass globe, became a defining element and was used across a range of raak lighting products, including table lamps, pendants, chandeliers, and wall lights. The globes were produced in three color variants: grey violet, smoked brown, and clear natural glass. This particular lamp is fitted with the smoked brown version, elegantly mounted on a chrome-plated base. The globe can be easily adjusted to direct light in multiple directions, making it a practical as well as stylish lighting solution. The glass globe is free of chips or cracks, and the lamp is in original, well-preserved vintage condition. The light requires one e27 (e26) light bulb.
