Green Mushroom Floor Lamp Expo 58, BEGA Belgium

About the Item

Floor-lamp 1958 by the BEGA brand that can be used both indoors and outdoors. These kind of lamp was popular to use at patio's, mini golf courses and other public places. The lamp is in beautiful vintage condition and the glass shade is still fully intact. Even the porcelain fitting with label is still the original. This type of Bega lamps from the 1950s have now become quite rare. It shows similarities with the BEGA garden lamps that could be admired at the World Exhibition 'Expo 58', the largest event ever organized in Brussels. Bega was founded in 1945 at the end of World War II. As a small company with barely 5 employees, it quickly took off and won the "Medaille d'Or" at the international trade fair in Luxembourg in 1952. In 1958, Bega teamed up with some other companies to build the new multi-storey luminaire block at the largest industrial fair in the world. Eventually this would lead to the "World Light Show". Bega still exists and, as an umbrella group, has, among other things, the famous 'Glashütte Limburg' in its portfolio. It has already received a total of 275 iF Design Awards.
