"Tiburón" Desk Lamp by Luis Peres de La Oliva for Grin Luz, 1960's. ´ The Tiburón desk lamp, designed by Luis Peres de La Oliva for Grin Luz, stands as a rare gem from the 1960s, exuding timeless elegance for retro-inspired interiors. Crafted in Spain, its swiveling base and adjustable shade offer versatile lighting options. The arm, a fusion of wood and chrome, adds a touch of modern sophistication. With two E27 sockets behind the glass diffuser, this lamp illuminates workspaces or reading nooks effectively. Its sleek design and functionality make it a prized possession for collectors and enthusiasts of mid-century design. The Tiburón desk lamp not only enhances the aesthetics of any room but also serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of vintage craftsmanship. “Nonetheless, in our opinion, the most attractive lamp that Luis Pérez de la Oliva designed for Grin Luz is a model whose name is unknown, like all the other models of this brand, and for which we have not been able to find a patent. It is a lamp that has the typical Fase look of which we have talked about (rotating ball-bearing base, familiarly shaped shade, cooling glass diffuser; swivel shade, wood in the base), but it bears a unique trait: the arm has a very particular shape that, at least to us, is reminiscent of a shark fin. We therefore take the liberty to temporarily baptise this model Tiburón (Shark), at least until a Grin Luz catalogue shows up. It was offered in two finishes: in paint-to date we have found it in black, Corinthian red and grey-or in chrome. Because all the models have a chrome arm, the chrome version, which also has a chrome cooling glass diffuser, chrome base, and chrome shade, is simply spectacular. Your two authors have a particular weakness for the chrome version of this lamp, which is part of their personal collections.“ in Fase the book - mystery solved by Óscar Jiménez Serrano and Juan Luis Goméz Frieiro. 2018.
