The Cylinder lamp, designed by E&J Meiling for the Danish manufacturer Louis Poulsen in the late 1960s, embodies the essence of Scandinavian restraint. Crafted from metal—likely aluminium or steel—it features a pure cylindrical form measuring 21 cm in height and 14 cm in diameter. The entire lamp is finished in deep, matte black, with no gloss, patterns, or decorative details to interrupt the surface. The finish is smooth; the edges are sharp and precise, with proportions that emphasize verticality—a hallmark of Danish mid-century modernism. There are no visible fittings, handles, or additional elements; every aspect of the construction serves the function and the light. The lamp is preserved in very good vintage condition, showing only minor, barely noticeable traces of use, with no dents or scratches.This lamp is silent testimony to an era that valued quietude and light as ends in themselves. The Cylinder 'speaks' of the late 1960s, when Danish design rejected ornament in pursuit of form and harmony with its environment. The matte black absorbs reflections, as if the lamp wishes to remain in the background rather than take center stage. Its presence brings order and rhythm to a space, allowing light to flow freely without competition from superfluous details—a contemplative approach to object and function characteristic for Louis Poulsen's projects of the time.The Cylinder lamp can be used as a statement piece on a console, shelf, or in a relaxation zone of a modern living room. It works well within minimalist, Scandinavian, or industrial interiors, where pairing it with raw wood, glass, or
