ABOUT PRODUCTID 2589
This minimalist industrial lamp from the 1930s or 1940s exemplifies functionalist design in the spirit of Bauhaus and early modernist industry. Its construction is based on a lightweight, open-frame base made of slender metal rods with a dark, aged patina, supported by four round metal feet. The arm consists of two straight segments joined by sturdy screw connections, allowing flexible adjustment of the lamp head. The bulb holder is crafted from black Bakelite with a semi-matte finish and mounted on a brass extension, introducing a subtle warm accent to the otherwise cool-toned structure. The palette is dominated by deep black Bakelite, cool dark metal, and warm brass. The large, frosted glass globe bulb provides soft, diffused light. The lamp displays minor signs of age: a gentle patina and slight discoloration on the metal. It is preserved in very good condition, fully functional, with the original cord and a classic large plug. This object seems to speak of an era when function outweighed ornament, and every detail served a purpose. Its industrial character is expressed through the honesty of materials—Bakelite, metal, glass—emphasizing the notion that beauty arises from utility. Exposed screws, an open frame
