About the Item

Wonderfully stylish and pleasing to the eye swing light, easy to wall mount. This rare design wall lamp from the midcentury era is by Louis Kalff and it was manufactured by Gebrüder Cosack Leuchten, Germany. For the collectors of rare and great looking midcentury design light fixtures we also have this striking wall light. With Louis Kalff as the designer you can always be sure that the result will be a style icon and this wall light is no exception. Louis also worked with some of the best manufacturers, because he wanted the quality of the make to at least match that of his design. This rare light is in wonderfully original condition and the counter weight makes it very easy to 'operate'. The stunning lamp shade can be turned and angled almost 360º which makes this light highly practical for all kinds of purposes. Thanks to the original wall bracket (inside) it will be easy to mount and this fine wall fixture could not be in a better condition. Mind you, this pendant will be rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage, wherever you live on this beautiful planet.   Maximum width x height x depth adjustable: 13.3 x 17.7 x 48 / 69 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.
