Description
Art Deco Walter Von Nessen Style Machine Age Industrial Floor Lamp, 1930s
An outstanding example of early modernist lighting design, this 1930s floor lamp is executed in the Machine Age spirit with strong Art Deco influences, reminiscent of the work of Walter Von Nessen. Crafted from brushed aluminum and steel, the lamp combines sleek industrial lines with sculptural detailing, most notably seen in its textured grip section and precision-machined fittings.

The tall columnar body is anchored by a distinctive four-star steel base, giving it a commanding presence with great balance and stability. The upward-facing aluminum shade is slightly patinated, lending an authentic vintage character. At the same time, the geometric accents, knurled finishes, and streamlined silhouette reflect the functional yet decorative ethos of the Deco era. A wonderful blend of engineering and aesthetics.

In good vintage condition with minor signs of age consistent with use, this piece remains unaltered from its original form. Comes with ample provenance and has been part of a private collection specializing in early industrial design. A rare collectible and a practical lighting statement for lofts, studios, or design-forward interiors.
