ABOUT PRODUCTID 44589
This vintage scissor-arm workshop lamp from the 1960s/70s exemplifies functional, mid-century industrial design. Its construction features a robust metal scissor arm finished in matte black, bearing a subtle patina and light traces of use, typical for authentic vintage pieces. The rounded metal shade complements the overall silhouette, while the mounting bracket, crafted from light-toned, unfinished or lightly varnished wood, offers a natural contrast to the darker metal elements. Visible rivets and mechanical joints underscore the lamp's industrial heritage. The lamp includes a black power cord with an inline switch, and the scissor mechanism allows for adjustable extension up to approximately 110 cm. The condition is described as good: no major damage, a well-preserved patina, and all essential features remain functional. Most elements appear original, except for the power cord and switch, which may have been updated for safety.This lamp’s form tells the story of postwar Polish workshops, where simplicity and durability were paramount and every detail served a purpose. The matte black finish and worn surfaces evoke the everyday reality of the 1960s: light directed exactly where needed, the adjustable arm ready to accompany both work and leisure. The lamp’s honest materiality and construction do not conceal the passage of time; instead, they embrace it, as if the object itself wishes to recall the era in which it was created.Such
