This Swedish floor lamp is a fine example of the functional yet elegant lighting produced during the mid-20th century. Scandinavian lighting designers of the period often focused on creating versatile lighting solutions for the home, incorporating adjustable elements without sacrificing visual balance. Rather than relying on ornament, these designs emphasised quality materials and practical features that allowed a single fixture to serve multiple purposes.

The lamp is built around three slender brass stems that rise from a compact conical base before gently branching outward. Each arm terminates in an individually adjustable brass neck, allowing the fabric shades to be directed independently for reading, accent, or ambient lighting. The three shades can be arranged at different angles, creating a dynamic composition while distributing light evenly throughout a room. A small metal element unites the stems, reinforcing the structure without interrupting its delicate silhouette. The contrast between the warm brass, dark lacquered base, and textured fabric shades gives the lamp visual richness while remaining understated. Despite accommodating three separate light sources, the design feels remarkably light thanks to the fine proportions of the stems and the restrained detailing throughout. As a result, this three-arm floor lamp can provide both ambient and directional light while integrating flawlessly in an interior.

Scandinavian lighting is appreciated for combining practicality with refined design. This example captures those qualities particularly well, offering adjustable illumination within a composition that remains balanced and unmistakably mid-century.

Attributed to Birger Ekman (1905–1986), this floor lamp reflects the refined decorative language of Swedish Grace during the 1930s. Ekman is primarily associated with furniture distinguished by exceptional veneer work, marquetry, and finely executed inlays, combined with traditional cabinetmaking techniques. Swedish Grace emerged during the 1920s and 1930s as Sweden's interpretation of Art Deco, balancing classical proportions with simplified ornament and outstanding craftsmanship.

This lamp shares many of the characteristics found in Ekman’s work, particularly the sophisticated use of contrasting veneers and decorative inlay. The lamp is constructed around a tall, square column veneered in alternating bands of richly grained wood, creating a striking rhythm that immediately draws the eye upward. Fine inlaid details run across the height of the column, showing a stylised woman’s figure, demonstrating the precision associated with Swedish cabinetmaking of the period. The square base repeats the veneered and inlaid decoration while incorporating a sculptural burl wood element at its center, introducing an organic counterpoint to the otherwise geometric composition. A slender chromed arm projects from the top of the body and supports an adjustable shade, allowing the light to be directed as needed while adding a subtle functional contrast to the warmth of the wood. The careful combination of veneer, marquetry, chrome, and carved burl transforms the lamp into a piece that functions as both lighting and decorative furniture.

Today, lamps attributed to Birger Ekman are particularly appreciated for their exceptional woodworking and their close relationship to Swedish Grace furniture design. This example demonstrates how decorative techniques could be successfully integrated into a functional object, resulting in a floor lamp that is as much a showcase of craftsmanship as it is a source of light.

Nordic mid-century design of the mid 20th century was defined by restraint, material clarity, and a strong emphasis on functional beauty. Designers and manufacturers in Sweden, Denmark, and Finland sought to create objects that were elegant without being excessive, modern without feeling unnatural. Companies like Bergboms became known for producing refined lighting fixtures that balanced industrial precision with warm materials such as brass, wood, and leather. This lamp reflects an approach where proportion, surface, and light quality are carefully considered to create harmony in a space.

This lamp stands on an elegant tripod brass base that gives it a remarkably light visual footprint while providing excellent stability. Rising from the base is a slender black lacquered metal stem, interrupted by brass details that introduce subtle contrast and outline the vertical composition. The brass continues into the shade support, creating a cohesive transition from base to light source. The lamp draws its character from the interplay of its materials: the warm brass, the deep black lacquer, and the soft texture of the fabric shade. The restrained palette allows the crisp geometry and precise proportions to remain the focus. Model “G-31” has a versatile and elegant presence. Its slim profile occupies little space, yet the tripod base and carefully considered detailing give it a strong identity.

The result is a floor lamp that is both practical and sculptural, demonstrating Bergboms' ability to achieve elegance through thoughtful construction and measured use of materials.

Carl Auböck II was born in Vienna, Austria in 1900. After finishing the School of Graphic Design and the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, he attended the Bauhaus and joined a small group of artists in becoming the founding members of the now legendary school.

This pair of “Vice Versa” floor lamps reflects a fascination with sculptural simplicity and materials, while representing a unique piece of design history. The model, first thought to be created by Auböck 1952, has caused a debate within the design world decades after it was first issued. Within Denmark, the “Vice Versa” lamp was widely sold under the label of Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen, a key figure of Scandinavian design. The controversy still surrounds the model today, however what is undisputed is its beauty. Each lamp is composed of a slender black lacquered metal stem rising from a circular weighted base, creating a simple vertical silhouette. At the top sits the defining feature: a shade placed on a round metal holder. The shade can be reversed and re-positioned, allowing the direction and character of the light to shift depending on its placement. This element reflects Bauhaus functionality principles while still feeling elegant. Despite the minimal construction, the lamps have a strong sculptural presence, particularly through the balance between the thin stem and the oversized curved reflector that mirrors the conical base and ties in the design.

In 1925, Karl Heinrich Auböck passed away at the age of 53, leaving Carl II and the sculptor Mara Uckunowa, Carl’s wife, to take over operations of the Werkstätte at 23 Bernardgasse. In 1954 Carl Auböck II was awarded four gold medals at the Milan Triennale for designing a range of metalware, and pieces like this pair of lamps stand as proof of his genius.
