ABOUT PRODUCTID 23483
This German desk lamp from the 1970s exemplifies the functional, mid-century modern approach to design. The construction features a sturdy metal base in a deep, vivid shade of red, paired with a slightly flared, cylindrical lampshade—both finished in glossy lacquer. The flexible, chrome-plated gooseneck arm allows for precise adjustment of the light angle, ensuring practical usability. A white push-button switch is set into the flat, round base, complemented by a white power cord and an E27 bulb socket. The lamp’s proportions are harmonious, with a smooth, lustrous surface and well-crafted metal joints attesting to robust workmanship. Condition is very good—minimal signs of use, no visible damage, and no evidence of restoration; all components appear original and authentic.The lamp evokes the atmosphere of 1970s studios and home offices, where bold color met purposeful form. Its glossy red lacquer—like a trace of late afternoon sunlight on a wall—recalls a time when design was meant to be both practical and expressive. The chromed gooseneck speaks to the adaptability of daily routines, while the subtle sheen of the metal channels the energy and optimism of the decade.The lamp can be paired with a simple wooden desk or a modern console in a light veneer to highlight the contrast of colors and materials. It would also complement geometric wall art or minimalist accessories such as a ceramic tray for stationery or an industrial clock. Mid-century modern spaces, contemporary offices, or eclectic studios are environments where its form and hue will resonate most strongly.The lamp uses an E27 bulb socket. Height is 42 cm, and the shade diameter is 15 cm. It requires no special care apart from occasional dusting with a soft, dry cloth. All elements are original and authentic.
