AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bertrand Balas – “Springfontein” Pendant Lamps for Raak – Aluminium – 1970s set of two.

Beautiful pair of “Springfontein” pendant lamps designed by Bertrand Balas for Raak. Executed in brushed aluminium, these lamps feature the iconic layered, fountain-like design that softly diffuses the light while maintaining a strong sculptural presence.

The minimalist aluminium construction gives the lamps a refined industrial look, typical of Dutch modernist lighting from the 1970s.

Condition:
In good vintage condition. There are some very minor signs of use, including light surface scratches (minimal and difficult to capture on camera). The lamps hang from a long cord (approximately 1 meter of wire each). Please note: there is no ceiling canopy included.

Dimensions:
Height: 14 cm
Diameter: 18 cm

Two pieces available.

A timeless and elegant lighting design that fits beautifully in modern, mid-century, or contemporary interiors.

Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description.

Large and fragile items are shipped via Magic Movers or a comparable professional art and furniture transport service. Delivery time is usually 2–3 weeks, depending on destination and availability.
Smaller items are shipped via insured parcel service and are carefully packed.
