original 1930s Bauhaus table lamp – functional innovation and thoughtful design

This table lamp, designed in the Bauhaus style, was crafted in the 1930s and impresses with its minimalist, functional design and carefully crafted details.

The composition of nickel-plated parts, with the galvanization deliberately omitted from the top of the base, lends the lamp a distinctive charm. The effect makes the otherwise silver lamp appear with a delicate golden glow at the base, giving it a unique character.

We believe this lamp was designed by a German architect from the Bauhaus circle. It differs from other typical mushroom-shaped table lamps of the period in some fine details, such as the tastefully tapered base and the unique angle of the shade.

Another highlight of this lamp is its functional feature: The reflector shade can be adjusted via a support arm positioned below it, allowing it to tilt up to 180 degrees. In this position, the lamp creates a soft, glare-free, indirect light.

This lamp is an exceptional lighting object of museum-quality.
