Its bold red opaline glass shade has a rounded, organic silhouette that glows warmly when lit, creating an atmospheric presence in any room. The shade rests on a clean, tulip-shaped white lacquered metal base, giving the lamp a soft, futuristic elegance.

What truly sets this piece apart is its original dimmer switch—a white cylindrical control with vented detailing, which allows for precise adjustment of light intensity. Not only is it functional, it’s a beautiful design feature in its own right, and an essential component for authenticity. Many surviving examples lack this element, making this lamp especially desirable for collectors and purists.

Fully functional and in very good original vintage condition, this lamp makes a powerful design statement while remaining refined and timeless. Perfect for desks, sideboards, or bedside tables, it blends effortlessly into modern, retro, or eclectic interiors.

A standout piece from the golden era of West German lighting, where form and innovation went hand in hand.
