ABOUT PRODUCTID 11917
This postmodern desk lamp from the 1980s is an example of European design that merges engineered precision with geometric clarity. Its structure features a conical metal base and lampshade, both finished in a deep, matte black, connected by slender metal arms. Multiple joints allow for a wide range of adjustments, and two lighting modes provide flexibility in brightness to suit various tasks. A metallic rod with a spherical end beneath the shade serves both practical and decorative purposes. Proportions—base 18 x 12 cm, head 10.5 x 7.5 cm, arm length 60 cm—emphasize the lamp’s functional, unadorned character. The surface of the base presents minor scratches and faint white marks, typical for well-preserved originals from the era. The lamp is in very good condition, with no major damage or signs of heavy wear.The lamp’s form echoes the spirit of the 1980s—a decade when designers experimented with simplified geometry and the contrast of industrial materials. The black metal and exposed joints narrate a time when technology became part of everyday life and function was as valued as form. In this lamp, one can sense the quiet voice of the era, speaking of readiness for change and of light directed precisely where work or conversation unfolds.The lamp is well-suited to a modern workspace, whether placed on a light wooden or raw metal desk, where its matte black finish will highlight a minimalist setting. It may be paired with a simple graphite organizer
