Description from the seller

The Mid-Century Table Lamp in the style of Luis Pérez de la Oliva, produced during the Salazar dictatorship in Portugal, reflects a unique adaptation of Spanish mid-century design. This lamp is believed to be inspired by one of Pérez de la Oliva's rare *Fase* models, showcasing a combination of modernist aesthetics and functional design.

The lamp features a round metal base, providing stability and a sleek foundation. A wooden stem, crafted in an elegant geometric shape, supports a chromed tube diffuser that emits light evenly, enhancing its sculptural appeal. This blend of wood and chrome exemplifies mid-century modern design's focus on natural materials and industrial finishes.

Commissioned during the Portuguese dictatorship, this lamp serves as a historical piece that highlights the influence of iconic Fase designs beyond Spain, adapted to suit local production and aesthetic needs. Its clean lines and bold silhouette make it a standout piece in any collection.

In good vintage condition, this lamp is a rare find for collectors or enthusiasts of mid-century lighting design, offering a unique combination of history, style, and craftsmanship. A true testament to the enduring appeal of Luis Pérez de la Oliva’s design language.
