Floor Light #7 Denmark C. 1955

Description

A vintage floor lamp made of brass and cast iron in Denmark around 1955.
The light is made up of three simple sections; a 'crows foot' base a thick central shaft and, lastly, a more slender pole. Connecting the last two aforementioned sections is a collar of brass which highlights the subtle changes in the shapes involved in the design and their volumes. The restraint nature of the piece and its excellent balance results in a visually calm design that really only allows its materials to speak. For this reason the brass has been left with its warm-coloured and even patina, built up over 50+ years.
The shade is newly made in an off-white-oyster colour silk that nicely compliments the characterful brass.
In excellent, completely re-wired, condition.
