AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A sleek and functional vintage desk lamp made in Germany, designed according to the principles of the Bauhaus ethos: form follows function. This adjustable fixture combines industrial design with timeless elegance and is both decorative and practical.
The lamp is finished in white lacquered metal with characteristic crutch arms and visible tension springs, which create an industrial yet refined silhouette. The round metal base provides stability, while the shade is tiltable for directed light — ideal as a desk lamp, reading lamp, or atmospheric accent lighting in a modern, vintage, or industrial interior.
