Floor lamps
This pair of height-adjustable floor lamps, produced by Möllers Armatur Eskilstuna (MAE) in Sweden during the 1960s, is a superb example of Scandinavian lighting design. The lamps feature brass structures combined with black leather-wrapped stems, striking a refined balance between functional design and decorative craftsmanship. The brass adds a warm, vintage character, while the leather-wrapped stems introduce a tactile, organic element to the pieces. The height-adjustable feature allows for versatile positioning, making the lamps suitable for various lighting needs.
The conical lampshades, which have been replaced but maintain the original design, provide a focused light output, ideal for reading or task lighting. The shade design enhances the lamp’s clean, modern aesthetic, while the circular brass base ensures stability and complements the overall form.
The lamps are in good condition, with some signs of wear typical of age, including a rich patina on the brass and minor marks on the leather. These signs of use only add to the authenticity and vintage appeal of the lamps, highlighting their history and craftsmanship. The newly added lampshades preserve the original design while giving the lamps a fresh look.
Möllers Armatur Eskilstuna (MAE) was a Swedish manufacturer known for its high-quality lighting designs, often distinguished by fine materials and precise engineering. These floor lamps are a testament to the company’s commitment to quality and design, combining durability with aesthetic appeal.
