The Lamp
An exclusive Herda table lamp from the 1960s–1970s, featuring a stepped base with Art Deco–inspired lines, paired with the original cream-colored linen shade.

The lamp is in good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age — see photos for details.
Total height, including the shade, is approximately 60 cm. The base measures approximately 14 x 14 cm; the shade measures approximately 28.5 cm high, 18.5 x 18.5 cm at the top, and 34 x 34 cm at the bottom.

About the Brand
Herda was a Dutch lighting manufacturer founded in Amsterdam in 1946 by the Daniels brothers, whose origins trace back to making metal stoves during wartime shortages before pivoting to lighting after the war. At its peak, Herda employed over 350 people and supplied roughly 95% of the Dutch lighting retail market, making it the country's largest lamp manufacturer at the time, with depots across Tilburg, Oosterwolde, Borne, and Nuth alongside its Amsterdam headquarters. The company closed in 1997, and its lamps are now sought after by collectors of vintage Dutch design.
Please note: The item will be shipped well-packed and insured.
