AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Superb Philips table lamp designed by the famous Louis Kalff, model “Bijou”, emblematic of modernist design in the 1950s-60s.
Model with a solid brass base (very rare).
This rare piece has benefited from a complete and careful restoration, respectful of its original design.
The lamp has been fully renovated by hand:
Frame sanded, repainted in a “Sabena blue” shade, very close to the original color — an elegant and rare tone that enhances the lamp’s lines.
Two-component varnish finish, for a deep, satin, and durable result.
Original wiring preserved, carefully checked and in perfect working order.
Period plug and socket, fully operational.
(Bulb not included)
Perfect condition — no defects, no scratches, ready to use and display.
A collection piece as beautiful as on the first day, perhaps even better!
Careful packaging and secure shipping, fast dispatch with tracking.
Can be collected locally (if applicable).
