This table lamp, produced by Ikea in the late 1990s, exemplifies an iconic design inspired by a classic light bulb motif. The main body is composed of matte, frosted glass in a neutral, slightly cool white tone, which gently diffuses light to provide a soft, understated glow. The screw-thread section is rendered in brushed, silvery metal, while the base is made of matte black metal in a conical form that provides stability and geometric coherence. A practical toggle switch is integrated into the metallic segment, and the lamp features a single E14 bulb socket. Its playful, oversized bulb proportions pay tribute to the minimalist and pop-art motifs characteristic of the postmodern 1990s—combining functional clarity, smooth material transitions, and a design free from unnecessary embellishments. The piece is in very good overall condition with only minor, natural patina visible on the metal, and no chips or scratches. The exaggerated light bulb shape is a witty gesture from an era that balanced utility with a subtle flair for visual humor. The lamp seems to narrate the story of the 1990s—a time when domestic objects were meant to be both purposeful and quietly surprising. Its matte glass mouth diffuses light in a calm, gentle way, while the subtle interplay of glass and metal echoes a touch of industrial simplicity. The lamp
