Mid-Century Brass "Mushroom" Table Lamp, Europe ca 1960s
-
Description
Designers have been consistently inspired by nature in their work during the mid-century era, which makes curvilinear shapes an ongoing font of inspiration. But this mushroom silhouette, lovable as it may be, has only gained wide popularity during the 1970s.
The mushroom lamp is exactly what it sounds like: a funghi-shaped light fixture defined by its shade. The style’s recent popularity has much to do with the heart-warming light emitted from its undeniably whimsical design; making cramped spaces feel cosy. In the case of this table lamp, it’s its surface treatment that makes it stand so brightly out, quite literally. The lamp is made of brass, the ultimate material for mid-century lighting designs. The brass really stands out on the shade, and even under it when the lamp is lit. The foot is lacquered black, which is a modern touch that creates an interesting visual feature and prevents the lamp from looking heavy.
Adding illumination to a living space with this stylish table lamp will not only improve the ambience, it will also provide useful task lighting for those late nights. Apart from the aesthetics, the quality of this table lamp is also true to its mid-century heritage.
