ABOUT PRODUCTID 15915
This table lamp from the 1950s, attributed to Austrian maker Kalmar, exemplifies the tenets of mid-century modern design. The tripod base in satin-finish brass forms a geometrically disciplined and visually light foundation, while a cylindrical teak wood element with straight grain and rich, warm brown hue structures the central stem. The matte opal glass shade, featuring vertically molded ribbing, softens the light and adds a distinct tactile texture to the lamp. A black fabric-covered cord with a contemporary switch respectfully echoes the vintage roots of the piece. The composition of brass, teak, and glass reflects both the quality craftsmanship and the timeless character of the 1950s. This piece is preserved in excellent restored condition, with only subtle production marks and original patina maintained on the wood and metal surfaces. There is a gentle resonance of postwar optimism in this lamp’s simplicity and balanced ratios. The teak evokes the period’s fascination with exotic materials, while the ribbed glass shade suggests mornings washed in soft light and evenings shaped by the comfort of modern luminaires. Brass’s muted gleam and the understated white of the glass evoke spaces where order and discretion ruled, and where detail subtly shaped the rhythm of daily life. This lamp can serve as an accent on a sideboard in the living room or atop a desk in a home office—its light, sculptural profile also suits
