Counterbalance Brass Desk Lamp, Midcentury style

About the Item

This exquisite desk lamp with a solid brass counterbalance is designed to enhance your workspace without taking up room on your desk. Its twin bulb system in the shade provides both the main desk lighting and ambient light from the small cone. The lampshade can be customized in ivory, sage green, black (as pictured), or the classic primary colors of the 1950s (red, yellow, and blue). We have included some ambiance photos here to showcase the lamp's design and versatility. Its shade outline is designed to echo the iconic 1950s pieces by mid-century modern Italian studios Arteluce and Stilnovo, but with a unique and distinctive design that will add a touch of vintage charm to your workspace. Crafted by a workshop specialized in mid-century modern, every detail of this lamp is meticulously considered. The finish and appearance match the hard-to-find lamps from the 1950s that it was inspired by. Its arms and body are made of natural solid brass and hand-waxed patina, as seen in the photos. This desk lamp is made to order. Contact us to discuss any special requirements.

  • Five Large Brass Gilded Pair of Palm Sconces, Maison Jansen Attribution
    By Maison Jansen, J. Antony Redmile

    Important to avoid any confusion: Price listed is for the unit and there are a total of 5 units. Second there is another lot with single light (4 units available) in my listing that would be a perfect match. Sculptural pair of sconces.

I am listing with Jansen (Maison Jansen) attribution although not found any listing with these pieces. Very well manufactured with attention to detail. Backplate covers the US box.

  • Sciolari Gold Brass Led Crystal Mid-Century Chandelier 12 Lights Stilkronen, 70s
    By Stilkronen, Gaetano Sciolari
    Located in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, Florence
    Twelve lights chandelier from Gaetano Sciolari, production made for Stilkronen, Italy, 1970s. Eight lights down and four lights up. Brass gold-plated. Transparent elements in Led Crystal. Bulbs are sorrounded by 24 led crystal vertical elements to diffuse the light with the refraction principle. This is an interesting version of the Sciolari's production. Usually he is known for bare un-shaded lights and great, sculptural, metalwork. Most of the time it's missing a play with light. Here Gaetano has used classic crystal chandelier in a contemporary revised and updated design. A step in the past: chandeliers were made to have many upward lights (in origin candles) to provide greater light output for larger rooms. The addition of elements of glass or crystal all around was not made to shade the light, but to refract it, creating the impression of multiplying the light candles or bulbs used. This lighting play was used with all the leaves and frills of Murano chandeliers and French crystal chandeliers...
