This Danish wall sconce, produced by Lyfa in the 1970s, exemplifies mid-century modern design through its use of solid teak wood, brass accents, and plastic elements. The model features a scissor-arm construction, allowing for adjustable width between 32 and 55 cm. The matte teak surface highlights the natural wood grain and warm brown tone, while the brass hardware and cream lamp holder add a subtle contrast. The lamp is defined by geometric, angular lines, elongated wooden arms, and a slender, sculptural head—proportions characteristic of Danish design from the era. Minor surface marks attest to its vintage nature, and the original brown fabric-covered cord remains intact. This sconce carries a sense of quiet precision, as if the wood and brass communicate in the understated language of its time. The scissor mechanism suggests movement that can be paused at will, allowing for a custom composition of light on the wall. The tactile wood texture and subtle tonal variations reinforce its authenticity, while the overall impression is one of focus and balance—a fixture that becomes a visual anchor within a space. The lamp may serve as a lighting accent above a sofa or in a lounge area, where its adjustable width adapts to different interior arrangements. It can be paired with natural wood furniture, neutral textiles, or minimalist art to emphasize its geometric line. The sconce works well against white or light grey walls, creating a strong contrast with the brown and brass, and bringing out the warmth of the wood. Its gentle light can be complemented by nearby potted plants in ceramics or metallic accessories, enhancing the vintage character of this piece.
