About the Item

Mid Century Table Lamp in Goatskin and Wrought Iron, Congo, 1950s. This is a very special and rare table lamp in goatskin and wrought iron made in Congo, Africa. Mid 20th century - brought back to Belgium by a doctor who worked there in the 1950s. Wonderful and very unusual design - playful and elegant at the same time. Just a simple yet very well designed frame in wrought iron with added goatskin. This goatskin gives this lamp a very warm and inviting appearance - both switched on and off. The lamp shows its age - but does that in a very graceful and pleasant way. Highly original and rare piece. About ORNAMENTUM ORNAMENTUM - where we find perfection in imperfection, love a good patina and are always on the lookout for wonderful and unique pieces both vintage and antique. We are based in Belgium near the Dutch border.
