This table lamp was designed by Uno & Östen Kristiansson and produced by Luxus in Vittsjö, Sweden, during the 1960s.

The lamp holder and fittings are made of brass, providing a warm metallic contrast that complements the matte texture of the glass.

Uno & Östen Kristiansson were prominent Swedish designers recognized for their contributions to Scandinavian modern lighting and furniture. Their work typically emphasized clean geometric shapes, expert craftsmanship, and the use of natural materials. Luxus, established in 1950, was known for producing elegant and functional lighting solutions, often incorporating materials such as glass, wood, and acrylic.

The lamp embodies mid-century Scandinavian design principles through its simplicity and focus on material quality. The frosted glass base diffuses light softly, creating an atmospheric glow suited to various interior settings. This lamp is offered without a lampshade. Its dimensions include a base diameter of 10 cm and a total height of 57.5 cm (3.9 x 22.6 inches).
