The lamp is primarily constructed from brass, featuring a bold, rounded shade with a subtle flare that contributes to its distinctive silhouette. Below the shade, a perforated white plastic diffuser softens the light and reduces glare, reflecting pehrson’s commitment to creating comfortable and evenly distributed illumination. A central brass stem supports the shade and exhibits a warm patina developed over time, enhancing the lamp’s vintage appeal. The base is wrapped in cognac-colored leather with visible stitching, adding a tactile and luxurious contrast to the metallic elements and underscoring the piece’s refined craftsmanship. Part of the iconic bumling series, this lamp encapsulates pehrson’s vision of marrying innovative lighting technology with high-quality materials and bold design. The integrated switch located on the stem allows for convenient operation, emphasizing usability alongside aesthetics. Measuring 40 cm in diameter and 72 cm in height (approximately 15.7 by 28.3 inches), the lamp possesses a commanding presence while maintaining the understated elegance characteristic of mid-century scandinavian design. It remains a noteworthy example of functional artistry from this period.
