About the Item
A modernist Scandinavian 1950s table lamp, model E1278, produced by the renowned Swedish lighting manufacturer ASEA Belysning. It features a tripod brass base supporting a wooden cylinder, resting on three sphere-shaped feet. The lamp is complete with a bowl-shaped metal shade and a lampholder with an integrated light switch. Hallmarked ASEA and marked with model number E1278.
ASEA, the Swedish electrical company, was established as early as 1883, specializing in the production of electrical lights and generators. By the late 1940s, ASEA had acquired several rival companies, solidifying its position as one of Sweden's premier manufacturers of light fixtures. ASEA's Stockholm drawing office was responsible for the development of numerous modernistic lamps, designed for both public spaces and domestic applications. The company collaborated with several renowned designers, including Hans Bergström and Uno Kristiansson, over the years.
