ABOUT PRODUCTID 31732
This floor lamp, designed by Jindřich Halabala for UP Závody in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s, is a thoughtful fusion of function and form typical of the era’s modernism. The construction combines a high-gloss wooden veneer in a warm reddish-brown tone—likely walnut or mahogany—with metal elements in a chrome or nickel finish. The distinctive lampshade features alternating cream and dark brown panels, finished with a scalloped edge, offering a geometric counterpoint to the softly rounded forms of the table and integrated bar. An additional magazine rack with black lacquered panels emphasizes the practical aspect of the design, while the pronounced wood grain and subtle details showcase the craftsmanship involved. The lamp is preserved in very good condition—the surfaces remain glossy, there are no signs of heavy use, and all components form a harmonious whole.This lamp echoes the spirit of the 1960s: a time when elegance and utility were intertwined in everyday objects. It tells the story of Eastern European modernism—refinement and attention to detail balanced with practicality for daily life. The interplay of lampshade colors recalls the optimism of the era, while the gleaming veneer and gentle curves evoke images of home gatherings, conversations, and evening reading by lamplight.Halabala’s lamp could serve as the focal point of a mid-century modern living room, where it may be paired with a streamlined sofa, a geometric rug, and period accessories such as ceramic vessels or minimalist graphics. It would also suit an eclectic collector’s interior, with its sculptural form and functional table-bar creating a cozy corner for relaxation, reading, or intimate gatherings. It is worth combining it with furniture in dark wood finishes and textiles in warm, deep tones.
