Hans Bergström floor lamp
This rare floor lamp, designed by Hans Bergström and produced by Ateljé Lyktan in Åhus, Sweden during the 1950s, exemplifies mid-century Scandinavian lighting design through its innovative dual-light function and refined craftsmanship. The lamp features a black lacquered metal structure with a dynamic, asymmetrical frame that adds sculptural interest and visual movement.
One light source is enclosed within a plastic resin shade, emitting a warm ambient glow, while the other consists of an adjustable metal shade with perforations along the rim, providing focused, direct illumination. This combination allows for versatile lighting options, balancing atmosphere and task lighting in a single piece.

His work is renowned for blending functionality with elegance and for emphasizing quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship. This lamp is a prime example of his ability to unite sculptural form with practicality.
The lamp is in excellent vintage condition, retaining its original character and displaying a beautiful patina on the metal components. It measures 55 centimeters in width (21.7 inches), 22 centimeters in depth (8.7 inches), and 152 centimeters in height (59.8 inches), making it a striking yet versatile addition to any interior.
