Danish Brass Table Lamp with Tripod Base, Denmark 20th Century

About the Item

Danish Modernism is an era that defined an essential chapter in design history. The beauty of Scandinavian design is found in its simplicity, functionality and warmth. Through the mix of neutral colours, natural materials and varied textures , a distinctive aesthetic is created, characterised by a minimal, yet practical style. This table lamp, while classic in its form, stands out through the use of brass - the material of choice for designers of the era when it comes to lighting fixtures - for the entirety of its base and body. The metal is enduring and, as this lamp shows, develops a beautiful patina over time. The brass body has an appealing golden colour that stands out even more against the light-coloured shade. The base connects to a straight, sleek stem, traveling to the top where a shallow drum shade rests on the lamp. The lamp’s arms hold three light bulbs on symmetrically arranged supports, which ensure its functionality and provide adequate brightness to a room, while mirroring the tripod base. The light, when diffused through the light fabric shade, casts a warm and inviting glow, creating an ambiance that is both cosy and comforting. Additionally, the bronze accents on the lamp’s shade complement the golden-coloured lamp body. The commitment to quality craftsmanship exemplified by this piece ensures durability and a timeless allure that allows this lightning fixture the ability to invoke nostalgia, while also remaining relevant in today's design landscape. By acting as the subtle accent needed in a room, this piece creates ambiance and a hospitable, welcoming feeling. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Minor scratches and marks. The shade is a later replacement. Dimensions: 13.78 in ⌀ x 31.69 in H 35 cm ⌀ x 80.5 cm H
