Floor lamps produced throughout Scandinavia in the mid-twentieth century often explored different material combinations while maintaining the restrained forms associated with modern design. The main principles of Danish Modernism centred around simplicity, functionality and craftsmanship, with natural materials playing an important role in the overall appearance. This floor lamp follows these principles while offering plenty of visually arresting qualities.
The combination of wicker, brass and pine gives the piece a subtle warmth, creating an aesthetic that blends traditional craftsmanship with the functional character of Scandinavian lighting. The lamp’s material choice gives it a distinctive appearance, with the slender structure creating a light and elegant silhouette. The circular wooden base supports a long, narrow stem that rises vertically before curving forward in a pronounced arch to hold the striking shade. The stem is wrapped in wicker, adding an element of texture and warmth to its otherwise simple form. Its natural colour complements the pine base and contrasts beautifully with the shade. The curve allows the light to extend outward while giving the lamp a graceful, organic profile. Not only is the stem remarkable, but the conical shade stands out as well. Its broad shape is formed from brass, with a tapered upper section and a wide opening that directs the illumination downward. The warm golden material reflects the light, creating a cosy effect in a room. The contrast between the fine wicker-wrapped stem and the substantial metal shade gives the design a strong visual balance. The craftsmanship involved in creating this piece is evident in the careful transitions between materials and the attention to detail.
Through the use of a unique silhouette paired with natural materials, the maker of this lamp achieved an appealing combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, not forgetting practicality. This floor lamp has the capacity to anchor and define the surrounding space, making it an excellent addition to a living room or reading area.

This remarkable armchair was designed by German artist, Willi Ohler. The so-called “Worpsweder” either denote chairs made at the Worpsweder Kunsthütten (Worpsweder arts huts) in Germany, or a specific style of German chairs with solid wood frames, broad armrests, often from tall wood, with woven seats and backs. This piece features all of those characteristics.
Crafted during a time when movements like Modernism were reshaping design worldwide, this early 20th-century armchair reflect a transitional style rooted in both simplicity and elegance. This era emphasises clean lines, unique shapes, and high-quality craftsmanship to achieve timeless pieces like this one. The honey-toned wood highlights the warm patina that has developed over decades. The softly sculpted armrests framing the chair bring both elegance and ergonomic comfort to the overall form. Woven wicker is the main highlight of the piece. The material is used to construct the seat and tall backrest. The beautifully symmetrical pattern showcases the timeless artistry of artisanal furniture. The rectangular, slim legs create a sleek structure while not abandoning sturdiness. This chair preserves the value and beauty of master craftsmanship and exquisite materials.
Worpswede in Lower Saxony is famous nationwide for its long tradition as an artists' colony. Nowadays, about 130 artists and craftsmen and women live there permanently. The artists who created the so called "Worpsweder Kuentlerkolonie" were looking for the simple and original in art and life. The traditional reed and rush woven chairs of this region were greatly appreciated by the artists of the colony, and some of them were still produced around 1900-1920. They have become collectors’ pieces thanks to the craftsmanship that went into each chair’s creation.

This beautiful tray, produced in Spain in the second half of the 20th century, is a refined example of decorative craftsmanship paired with functional design. In 1798, the Valentí family started its first silversmith workshop in Barcelona. In 1925 Fernando Valentí Clúa, founder of the current Valentí, was born. Since then, they have created a company with a solid handcraft foundation, influenced by the decorative arts and the renaissance of craftsmanship applied to modernity.
The tray has a broad, elongated oval shape with a shallow interior and gently raised sides. Its outline has a natural flow, showing its handcrafted nature. The inside has a rich, warm golden brass surface, dramatically enhanced by areas of turquoise. Across the bottom of the tray, the brass almost melts across the blue surface. The pattern it creates is effortlessly organic. The exterior displays a continuous turquoise finish, making the distinction between the inside and outside especially striking. The smooth, shallow form allows the different surfaces to remain clearly visible, while also working functionally as a tray. The combination of materials gives the piece a memorable example of Spanish mid-century decorative metalwork.
Decorative objects of this kind are particularly appealing for their ability to introduce colour, texture and material contrast into an interior. This Valentí tray is an excellent centrepiece for a coffee table, dining table or sideboard, where its richly patterned interior can be appreciated from above. It can also serve as a decorative catchall or simply be displayed as an object in its own right.

In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Due to the nature of material, the item has some marks, scratches, and discolouration.

Christian Krass (1868–1957) was a French cabinetmaker and furniture designer based in Lyon, he became an important figure in the city’s decorative arts during the first half of the 20th century. His work included seating, tables, desks and cabinets, often combining carefully worked woods with the geometric forms and refined materials associated with Art Deco. This armchair, which dates back to circa 1930s, applies Krass’s skill to a compact and elegant seating design.
The armchair is defined by its exposed wooden frame, which combines straight lines with subtle curves. Four tapered legs support the upholstered seat, with the front legs continuing upward to meet the armrests and creating a clear structural outline. The armrests have a particularly interesting shape, extending horizontally into a carved element before turning downward. Their broad wooden surfaces and warm reddish-brown tone contrast with the patterned upholstery while keeping the construction clearly visible. The backrest is generously upholstered and slightly curved, with rounded upper corners that soften the otherwise geometric frame. Its shape follows naturally into the broad seat below, creating comfortable proportions within a relatively compact structure. The green and cream upholstery introduces a small repeating geometric pattern that complements the straight lines of the wood while adding texture and visual depth. The clean junctions between the legs, seat rails, arms, and back show the quality of the woodworking, with each element contributing equally to the overall composition.
The chair captures the more restrained side of French Art Deco, where decorative effect could be achieved through proportion, material and carefully controlled lines. Its scale makes it particularly suitable as a desk chair, side chair or additional seating in a living room or bedroom. It represents an interesting example of French furniture design from the 1930s.

ASEA, founded in 1883, was a Swedish company that became an important part of the country’s electrical industry. Its production extended across a wide range of equipment, including lighting, and its long manufacturing history placed it firmly within Sweden’s development of lighting design. This hanging lamp, produced in the 1950s, combines the functional character associated with Scandinavian mid-century lighting with an unusually expressive metal construction.
The lamp has a striking composition built from two slender brass stems that descend vertically before terminating into two dark conical metal shades angled upward and outward on either side of the central structure. Above them, a broad metal sheet extends horizontally, creating a striking contrast with the narrow vertical supports. The sheet has a gently curved profile, with its outer edges lifting upward. Its light-coloured underside reflects the illumination from the two conical shades below, producing a warm, indirect glow that highlights the material. The contrast between the dark cones, golden brass and pale upper reflector gives the lamp a particularly graphic appearance. Two black cords continue above the brass stems, maintaining the slender vertical lines of the construction. The combination of forms gives the lamp a distinctive appearance while keeping the overall structure remarkably light. The open space between the different elements is an important part of the design, allowing the individual components to remain clearly visible while creating a balanced composition.
The most appealing aspect of this ASEA ceiling lamp is the way its unconventional construction creates both atmospheric lighting and a strong decorative presence. Its expressive geometry makes it a particularly interesting example of Swedish mid-century lighting, offering something more individual than a conventional pendant or chandelier. This lamp is suitable for a living room, dining area or other space in need of a statement piece.
Condition:
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The lamp has recently been reconditioned. There are minor dents and scratches in the metal. Due to the age and nature of the materials, the lamp may have marks, and discolouration. All lighting can be converted for US usage.
