This specific piece is a rare find as it comes with its original manufacturer's box, confirming its authenticity and provenance. The lamp features a sleek, spun aluminum shade with a brushed finish. True to Hammerborg's philosophy of glare-free lighting, the bottom of the lamp is fitted with a concentric plastic louver system (diffuser) that softens the light and hides the bulb from view. Additionally, small slots at the top of the shade allow a subtle amount of light to escape, illuminating the exterior of the metal and creating a decorative "halo" effect. This piece offers direct, warm downlighting perfect for a dining table or kitchen island, while the aluminum finish adds a clean, industrial touch typical of the Space Age era.
