Description from the seller
Table Lamp Space Age / UFO in Chrome – 1970s
This extraordinary table lamp is a superb example of Space Age design, featuring a slender silhouette that evokes the classic UFO or flying saucer shape.
Made entirely of polished chromed metal, the structure revolves around an elegant cylindrical stem resting on a solid circular base equipped with an integrated switch. The true visual focal point is the spectacular multi-tiered concentric shade with a gradient: the chrome disks reflect the surrounding environment like mirrors, while the top is crowned by a microperforated metal cap and a transparent acrylic ring. This sophisticated geometric layering not only gives the lamp a strongly sculptural and futuristic appearance but also allows for dynamic, shielded, atmospheric light diffusion. A piece with great visual impact, perfect for completing desks, consoles, or coffee tables in modern, mid-century, and eclectic interiors.
Condition:
The lamp is in excellent condition, with a splendid and bright original chrome finish. It shows only minimal and normal signs of aging consistent with the object's age; the electrical system has been checked and is fully functional.
