Description from the seller

Louis Poulsen “Butler” Floor Lamp – 1970s Danish Design

Elegant and functional Butler floor lamp, designed by Louis Poulsen’s design studio under the direction of Bent Gantzel-Boysen and produced by Louis Poulsen, Denmark.

This classic floor lamp originates from the 1970s and is a strong example of Scandinavian industrial design, combining functionality with a clean, architectural expression. The lamp features two adjustable lamp heads, allowing flexible control of the light direction, making it suitable for reading, workspaces, or ambient lighting.

The lamp is made of metal, with a black lacquered stand and colored metal shades with white reflective interiors, providing an efficient and pleasant light. The base is equipped with wheels, making the lamp easy to move and practical in both private and professional interiors.

Condition
The lamp is in good vintage condition with normal signs of age and use consistent with its period.
Please note that one of the original black on/off switch knobs is missing. This does not affect the functionality of the lamp in any way – both light sources operate as intended – and the issue is purely cosmetic.
