This striking piece captures the early functionalist spirit of swedish modern design, where form and function merge in perfect balance. The lamp can also be wall-mounted and used as a sconce, making it a versatile lighting fixture suitable for a range of interiors. Crafted from nickel-plated steel, it features a circular base with an integrated light switch, a cylindrical stem, and a hemispherical metal shade painted in a deep green tone. The shade is held in place by a curved arm, allowing for easy adjustment of the light angle. Compact and beautifully proportioned, this lamp exemplifies the stripped-down, machine-inspired aesthetic characteristic of 1930s modernism — functional yet elegant, industrial yet refined. A true collector’s piece that showcases the timeless quality of early swedish design. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
