Harald Notini table lamp
This rare table lamp was designed by Harald Notini and produced by Arvid Böhlmarks Lampfabrik in Sweden during the 1950s. The lamp exemplifies Scandinavian modern design through its thoughtful combination of brass, leather, and its original lampshade, reflecting refined craftsmanship and careful material selection.
The composition is well balanced, featuring a circular brass base that supports a slender central column wrapped in stitched leather, adding a tactile warmth and visual contrast. The broad, slightly curved metal shade retains its original green lacquer finish with a white interior, designed to maximize light reflection. A decorative brass finial crowns the top of the shade, while the on/off switch is conveniently positioned on the base for practical use.
Harald Notini was an influential Swedish lighting designer known for blending traditional craftsmanship with modernist aesthetics. His work for Böhlmarks Lampfabrik illustrates the mid-century Scandinavian focus on material quality and understated elegance.
The lamp measures 33 cm in diameter and 38 cm in height (approximately 13 x 15 inches). It remains in original vintage condition, exhibiting patina and wear consistent with age and regular use.
