The Jumo 71 “Eileen Gray” desk lamp was produced in France in the late 1940s and is based on a design originating from the 1930s.
It combines a finely crafted chrome-plated metal structure with a red lacquered pressed-steel shade.
The lamp’s functional geometry and strong colour contrast capture the essence of early modern French design, balancing utility and visual clarity.
This early post-war edition is sturdier than later reproductions and retains its original toggle switch and B22 bayonet fittings, now fitted with compatible LED bulbs.
The shade can be rotated and tilted, while the articulated rods allow height adjustment and directional lighting control.
