Scandinavian modern pinewood wall lamps, pine and acrylic, Sweden, 1970s

About the Item

A charming pair of wall lamps, crafted by an unknown Swedish manufacturer in the 1970s. Made from moulded pinewood with a white acrylic reflector and rustic wooden details. This pair of wall scones are a great example of the rustic aesthetic typical for Swedish design of the era. Each picture fitted with a standard e14 lamp holder. Pine is a common tree in Sweden, found in forests all over the country. Modernist architects in the 1940s and '50s often preferred more exclusive types of wood, creating chairs and tables crafted from rosewood, mahogany, and teak. But in reaction to this, some designers started using pinewood, a material traditionally used in peasant society for creating everything from furniture and tableware to houses. Axel-Einar Hjorth used pinewood for his “Sportstugemöbler” as early as the 1920s, and the material experienced a revival in the 1970s when rustic furniture started replacing the elegant and exclusive pieces produced in earlier decades.
