Description from the seller

A beautiful mid-century lamp in the style of Ingo Maurer.
For sale is an absolute design rarity from the 1960s/1970s: a distinctive vintage table lamp, completely crafted from natural cork bark. With its geometric form and the warm, organic texture, it is a showcase example of the brutalist Space-Age design of that era and strongly reminiscent of the iconic designs by Ingo Maurer (Design M). Once the lamp is switched on, the light shimmers beautifully and cozily through the natural cork structure – an absolute eye-catcher for lovers of authentic vintage living.
Condition (please note): The lamp has already had a long life and is in used vintage condition with age-related blemishes. It is expressly not perfect, which, however, gives it its own, honest character: The cork shows typical age-appropriate dings, small flaws, or slight wear in some places (see close-up photos). The fringe trim on the shade and the surfaces show an authentic patina. The electrical system is functional. Please examine all photos carefully, as they are expressly part of the item description.
Details & measurements:
Era: approx. 1960s/1970s; Material: cork, supporting material, textile trim; Style: Mid-Century Modern / Brutalism / Vintage
Light source: E27 socket (bulb not included)
Shipping: The lamp is packed for transport extremely carefully and securely (shade and base are optimally protected) so that it arrives with you undamaged.
