About the Item
This sculptural and compact desk lamp, attributed to Hala Zeist (Netherlands), is a striking example of early mid-century industrial design. Produced around the 1950s, the lamp is made entirely from dark brown Bakelite — a prized early plastic known for its durability and warm, tactile quality.
Its standout feature is the sharply angular, hat-like shade, perched asymmetrically on a compact base with a charming toggle switch. The bold geometric lines and compact form give it a highly architectural look, reminiscent of Bauhaus influences blended with Dutch functionalism.
Perfect for collectors of early plastics, design enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a unique accent piece for a small workspace or side table.
