Carl Fagerlund table lamp

This table lamp, model RD1987, was designed by Carl Fagerlund and produced by Orrefors in Sweden during the 1960s. The lamp features a slender brass stem accented by stacked cylindrical glass elements, creating a structured and balanced composition. The base combines brass and glass components, complementing the design through a harmonious blend of warm metallic tones and transparent surfaces.

Carl Fagerlund was a Swedish designer noted for his lighting designs, particularly in collaboration with Orrefors, one of Sweden’s most prestigious glass manufacturers. Orrefors, founded in the late 19th century, is internationally recognized for its exceptional glass craftsmanship, producing both decorative and functional lighting pieces. Fagerlund’s work is characterized by clarity, precision, and a fusion of modernist design principles with Scandinavian craftsmanship.

This lamp exemplifies mid-century Scandinavian aesthetics through its clean lines, geometric form, and the combination of glass and brass materials. It is offered without a lampshade. The base diameter measures 11 cm, and the total height is 64.5 cm (4.3 x 25.4 inches).
