The lamp demonstrates a characteristic lightness of construction, combining slender blackened steel supports with organically curved brass goosenecks. The tripod base and vertical composition create a balanced architectural presence while maintaining visual delicacy — a quality associated with Danish workshop lighting of the era.

The restrained material palette of patinated brass and matte steel reflects mid-century Danish craftsmanship, where form and proportion were prioritized over ornamentation. The sculptural silhouette allows the lamp to function both as directional lighting and as a freestanding design object.
