Description from the seller

Pair of Large Vintage Ateljé Lyktan Adjustable Wall Lamps Model 4091 – Anders Pehrson, Sweden, 1970s
In excellent condition – No reserve.

A beautiful and authentic pair of vintage Scandinavian wall lamps, Model 4091, designed by Anders Pehrson and manufactured by Ateljé Lyktan in Åhus, Sweden, during the early 1970s.

These distinctive large wall sconces feature elegant yellow-ochre lacquered metal shades with contrasting white interiors, designed to provide excellent light reflection. The shades are mounted on flexible, brass-toned metal gooseneck arms, allowing the light direction to be adjusted to suit different settings.

Both lamps feature their original polished chrome wall plates with integrated on/off rocker switches, combining practical functionality with timeless Scandinavian design.

The original manufacturer's labels are still present inside both shades, confirming Model 4091 and the maximum 100 W rating.

The lamps are in excellent vintage condition, with only minor signs of age and use. No dents. Both have been tested and are fully functional, including the integrated switches.

A highly decorative and increasingly collectible pair of authentic heavy quality Swedish Mid-Century Modern lighting, ideal as bedside reading lamps or stylish accent lighting. A real eye-catcher for lovers of Scandinavian design.

Historical Context
Ateljé Lyktan, founded in 1934 in Åhus, Sweden, became one of Scandinavia's most respected lighting manufacturers. Under the creative direction of designer Anders Pehrson, the company developed numerous influential lighting designs during the 1960s and 1970s. Its distinctive combination of industrial functionality, vibrant colours and clean Scandinavian aesthetics remains highly sought after by collectors.
