This original Midgard lamp from the 1950s exemplifies utilitarian Scandinavian design with a distinctly industrial character. The entire construction is metal: a conical shade, a two-part articulated arm joined by exposed, mechanical joints, and a robust clamp for flexible attachment to various surfaces. The lamp’s primary color is a cool, matte grey-blue, showing its age through scattered chips, scratches, and areas where the paint has worn away to reveal the raw metal beneath. The original beige cord and a black, disc-shaped switch or handle complete the composition. The proportions are elongated and balanced, while the fully adjustable arm allows for precise light direction—ideal for reading, desk work, or accent lighting near a lounge chair. The lamp accommodates E27 bulbs. Preserved in very good vintage condition, with authentic patina and period-typical signs of use.The lamp’s form tells the story of the 1950s, a period when Scandinavian design celebrated function and material honesty. The worn, matte metal surfaces speak of postwar European life: restrained, resourceful, yet welcoming modern solutions. It evokes the memory of workshop tables or late-evening reading, while its adjustable arm echoes its industrial roots—each joint and flake of paint testifies to authentic, time-honed durability
