AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant vintage table lamp from the 60s/70s with an adjustable swivel arm and a classic turned brass base.
This lamp was sold by Joh. W. Borkus, a well-known Amsterdam lighting shop located on Ceintuurbaan since 1931 and active into the early 2000s. The original shop sticker under the base is still present, which contributes to the provenance and authenticity.
The combination of the solid brass base and the functional swivel arm reflects the practical and decorative design from the transitional period between classic and mid-century modern. The arm is adjustable, allowing the light to be easily directed.
The shade has recently been replaced (not original), in a warm neutral tone that nicely complements the brass and provides atmospheric, diffuse light.
