This German desk lamp from the 1960s exemplifies Space Age design, with clear mid-century modern influences. Its structure is built upon a low, oval cast-iron base finished in matte white lacquer with a distinctive, textured 'orange peel' surface. The broad, shallow dome-shaped shade shares the same lacquered texture, with its inner surface painted white to enhance light reflection. The arched arm, crafted from satin-finished brass, traces a geometric S-curve, elegantly connecting the base and shade. The lamp features a small white rotary switch on the base and is fitted with two E27 sockets. The overall condition is very good, with no visible damage; the brass displays natural patina, underscoring its vintage authenticity.The lamp’s form evokes the spirit of the 1960s, when everyday objects were infused with dreams of the future and space exploration. The matte white and satin brass speak of a time when design sought to be both functional and daringly modern. The grainy lacquer texture and fluid arm recall the dawn over a spacecraft capsule, while gentle signs of patina suggest the lamp still remembers the first evenings at the desk of a young engineer or dreamer from the Space Age era.This lamp can be paired with simple wooden or metal desks to highlight its geometric profile. It would suit mid-century modern, minimalist, or industrial interiors—especially among shades of grey, graphite, or glass. It may also be combined with vintage accessories to emphasize its origins, or placed on a console table in a living room or bedroom as a subtle lighting accent
