Model "2822" Floor Lamp with Geometric Elements by KLK, Sweden Mid-20th Century
-
Description
In the 20th century, Swedish lighting designers created iconic works which combined elegant and iconic shapes with modern functionality. Their commitment to quality craftsmanship and avant-garde design principles set them apart as pioneers in the industry. This innovative and timeless floor lamp model seamlessly blends tradition with modernity, reflecting the era's ethos.
This Swedish lamp by KLK Lighting showcases an exquisite blend of elegance and functionality that can provide a touch of Swedish sophistication to any space. This piece stands out through its rather geometric look, combining different shapes to reach a unique silhouette. The design features charming contrasts, such as, the square brass base that grounds the lamp, and the drum shade, which breaks the angularity of the base. Not only this, but the combination of brass and black lacquered metal is a quintessential pairing of the era in which this piece was made. Along the stem, there are brass accents present, further elevating the lamp’s visual appeal, as well as is geometric dimension. The long black stem also exudes a sense of modernity and understated elegance that can effortlessly integrate into a variety of decors.
Wherever they are placed, floor lamps have been used as practical and decorative focal points since the early 20th century. As this piece showcases, in Scandinavia, designers managed to master the art of soft, cosy light without blinding or crushing space perception. Crafted with precision and attention to detail, this floor lamp is a testament to Swedish and Scandinavian design excellence.
