Model "2727484" Floor Lamp by Nordiska Kompaniet, Sweden ca 1950s

Creator: Nordiska Kompaniet
Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
The beauty of Scandinavian design is found in its simplicity, functionality and warmth. The decorating principles of Scandinavian Modern mix neutral colours, natural materials and varied textures to create a distinctive aesthetic characterised by a minimal, practical style. These creative choices fall perfectly in line with the design of this floor lamp, produced by Nordiska Kompaniet.

This piece, while classic in its form, stands out through the choice of materials. The lamp's foundation is made of a robust brass base, ensuring stability and durability. The combination of the brass and leather body, and the fabric shade, creates a harmonious contrast, epitomising the 20th century guiding design principles that sought to marry functionality with form as well as incorporate a touch of elegance. The light, when diffused through the fabric shade, casts a warm and inviting glow, creating an ambiance that is both timeless and comforting. Swedish mid-century lighting models endure in popularity thanks to the emphasis on clean lines and beautiful forms that create a sense of simplicity and harmony, allowing them to seamlessly integrate with various interior styles. The precise construction of this lamp ensures that every detail was carefully considered, from the proportions to the combination of materials.

The Swedish company Nordiska Kompaniet manufactured this lamp with utmost care for its quality and design. The company was among the most renowned Swedish lighting manufacturers during the mid-century era, working with some of the most well-known Scandinavian designers.
