Swedish Bell-Shaped Perforated Wall Lamp No. 6972 in Brass from Boréns in Borås

About the Item

This is the Swedish wall lamp no. 6972 from Boréns Aktiebolag in Borås. It comes in a bell-shaped shade with a perforated pattern. In the dark, the light that shines out of the tiny punched holes creates a beautiful, mysterious pattern on the wall behind the lamp. The lampshade is mounted on a bent brass shaft and can be directed up and down as desired and the shaft turned sideways. The bulb holder is model E14 The lamp is marked, partly with the manufacturer's label “Borèns Aktiebolag Tranås 6972” and also the S-mark, both labels at the inside of the wall mount. The S-marking was founded in 1926 and until 1994 there was a state requirement which meant that in principle all electrical installation equipment to be installed in Sweden had to be tested and approved by SEMKO for S-marking. Boréns Aktiebolag I Tranås was a Swedish manufacturer of luminaires, founded 1924. They were known for their high quality of products. The company closed down 1985.
