Mid-Century Model 520 Table Lamp in the style of Luis Perez de la Oliva, 1970s
About the Item
The Mid-Century Model 520 Table Lamp, inspired by the style of Luis Pérez de la Oliva and produced during the 1970s, offers a unique glimpse into design adaptation under political influence. This lamp is a copy commissioned by Salazar’s dictatorship in Portugal, showcasing the broader influence of Spanish design during that era.
While it retains the hallmark elements of the original 520 Lamp — including the sleek silhouette, curved chrome arm, and rounded shade — this version differs slightly in size and shape, adapting the design to fit local production and aesthetic preferences. Despite these differences, the lamp preserves the distinctive 520 look, making it instantly recognizable.
The lamp features a matte black finish paired with a chrome stem, a striking combination that complements its mid-century modern aesthetic. The base-mounted switch, accented in orange, adds a subtle retro touch while maintaining its practical functionality.
This lamp stands as both a functional lighting piece and a historical artifact, reflecting the cross-cultural adoption of design trends during a time of political restriction. A rare find, it is perfect for collectors of mid-century lighting or those intrigued by the intersection of design and history.
