About the Item

Mid-century wall lamp from the 1950s featuring an elegant solid wood handle, finely turned into a stylized drop shape. The design combines a brass swing arm with a black metal shade in an inverted conical form, topped by a flared opening that enhances its sculptural character. The contrast of materials —brass, wood, and lacquered metal— is executed with balance, giving the piece a timeless and sophisticated presence. The visible wall hinge and pull cord add to its functionality, while the white interior ensures a soft and even light. This is a truly unusual design, standing out from other wall lamps of its time through its uncommon composition and carefully chosen materials. A unique piece that captures the essence of mid-century European design with elegance and precision.
