Description from the seller

Vintage Wall Lamp in Amber Plexiglass – Herda (Netherlands), ca. 1965–1975
In Excellent/ near mint Condition – No Reserve

A striking original wall lamp attributed to the renowned Dutch lighting brand Herda.
Offered here is a very rare round model from this Hera serie.

Made of amber-brown and transparent plexiglass, this geometric lamp captures the essence of 1960s–1970s space-age design — where bold colour, transparency, and modernist form combine into a sculptural light object. The layered acrylic structure, enhanced by the mirror bulb, creates a beautiful diffusion of light with warm reflections on the wall — a true eye-catcher both lit and unlit.
