Floor lamps
This rare pair of floor lamps, produced by Falkenbergs Belysning in Sweden during the 1950s, is a stunning example of mid-century Scandinavian design. The lamps combine high-quality materials with simple yet refined craftsmanship, reflecting the principles of the era.
Each lamp features a slender brass stem that gracefully transitions into a lower section made of rosewood, segmented with subtle rings that create a visually rhythmic quality. The brass base provides stability and complements the warm tones of the rosewood, contributing to the lamp’s balanced design. The original pleated lampshades are made from cream-colored fabric, offering soft light diffusion while maintaining the classic, streamlined silhouette typical of mid-century modern lighting.
Falkenbergs Belysning was a well-regarded Swedish lighting manufacturer known for its finely crafted fixtures, often incorporating brass and high-quality wood. Their designs from the mid-20th century reflect the Scandinavian modern movement’s focus on natural materials, functional design, and timeless aesthetics.
These lamps remain in their original condition, with minor signs of age-related wear, including natural patina on the brass and slight variations in the wood grain, further enhancing their vintage character.
Each lamp stands 145.5 cm (57.3 inches) tall, with a lampshade diameter of 39 cm (15.4 inches), making them elegant, functional, and visually striking fixtures for a variety of interior settings.
