By AMBA, Alfred Müller, AMBA
Located in Hamburg, DE
Rare table lamp from the swiss manufacturer amba based on a design by alfred müller from the 1930s. It was later produced by belmag. a functional design classic from the early 20th century. The lamp still has the original color - a shade of green - with the corresponding patina. The widely projecting umbrella, which sits at the end of an angled shaft, is striking. The shaft is chrome-colored. The color of the shade is repeated in the base. The umbrella is pivoted. This means the light can be individually aligned using the rotating shaft and shade. The height of the lamp can also be adjusted by pulling the shaft out of the base. the lamp is in very good condition with signs of wear and patina. Cables, switches and plugs were replaced. design: alfred müller, 1935 manufacturer: amba (alfred müller basel...
