1960s Danish Modern Floor Lamp in Solid carved Oak and Brass
About the Item
This striking Danish floor lamp from the 1960s embodies the refined craftsmanship and sculptural sensibility that define the midcentury modern movement in Scandinavia. The lamp’s shaft is composed of individually carved oak segments, rhythmically stacked to create a dynamic vertical cadence. Each oak element is subtly varied, lending the piece a tactile, almost architectural presence that engages both light and shadow—an effect often associated with the era's interest in organic repetition and handcrafted detail.
The oak’s natural warmth is elegantly contrasted by a minimal brass top, providing a moment of luminous refinement that anchors the lamp in both material sophistication and visual balance. The juxtaposition of brass and wood—industrial and natural, smooth and textured—reflects a key tenet of Danish modernism: the harmonious integration of contrasting elements.
While the maker remains anonymous, the lamp clearly draws from the design language of leading Danish studios of the time, where lighting was not merely functional but sculptural—meant to punctuate a space with both atmosphere and form. This floor lamp stands as a testament to the era’s commitment to craftsmanship, material honesty, and quietly expressive design.

Danish Modern Oak & Brass Adjustable Floor Lamp by Holm Sørensen, 1960s
By Svend Aage Holm Sørensen
Located in Odense, DK
Cool and beautiful floor lamp handmade by Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen in his own workshop in the 1960s. The brilliant design allows you to adjust the height simply by moving the brass rod up and down along the oakwood part of the base. The lamp is very nicely patinated and comes with a brand new shade in light flax linen.
This lamp was only produced in the 1960s in very limited numbers and is therefore a rare find.
Dane Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen (1913-2004) had a creative streak beyond the ordinary. He is known among vintage collectors, not least internationally, where the original lamps fetch high hammer blows at auctions. Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen drew sketches of everything. Envelopes, theater programs...
