Description

This floor lamp was produced by Gepo Netherlands, gebroeders Posthuma, Holland. The company designed a few number of beautiful lighting designs during the 1960s and 1970s, clearly influenced by Italian designers from the same era, such as Colombo, Guzzini and Arteluce.

The light can be adjusted in much different ways, the heavy metal base keeps the arc very stable when moving. The heavy chrome-plated globe can put in the ring any way you want. Very practical design, and good condition; no dents in the sphere, no broken parts etc. The light can be shipped in parts quite easily.

Heavy quality and in perfect condition. Cleaned, re-wired and ready to use.
