About the Item

Kvadrille, wall lamp designed by Bent Karlby in 1969 and produced by Lyfa, a gorgeous sconce or light relief in very good vintage condition! Absolute gorgeous design! Top-of-the-line from Bent Karlby and internationally sought after piece! A raised square in thick yellowish hard plastic and a center of layered metal squares, colored white, blue, red and black. The bulb mount is concealed behind the layered metal squares inside the thick plastic square, which act as wall mounting. Originally advertised as a light relief for use in bookcases, shelving, on tables or walls, as Bent Karlby had designed a genius (wall) mounting - you are able to hang it on the wall and create a beautiful light sculpture or place it on a table, as the mounting features a small base which enable the lamp to Stand steady on a table or a shelf. When lit, the light is emitted through the space between the many layers of squares, and radiates soft warm light around it - an exceptional vintage collectible addition to any space! Condition: This Kvadrille is in very good vintage condition with very few signs of usage and age. Please see the photos! All original incl. 1,8 m (5' 10.9") plastic cord, fitted with on/off switch placed at convenient height at the cord and fitted with Euro style plug - which is easily changed to your specific plug. Tested and fully functional. Cleaned, labeled and packed in protective bag. Light source: One bulb, Edison screw-fitting (E14/E12 with adapter) - Max 40 watt.
