This model "25760" table lamp was designed by Melchior Wernstedt, a Swedish architect and graphic artist active in the first half of the 20th century. The beauty of Scandinavian design is found in its simplicity, functionality and warmth. This Swedish brass table lamp exemplifies the refinement that defines the era's pieces.

Manufactured at Nordiska Kompaniet in the 1920s, this "25760" table lamp has a classic look at first sight, but upon closer inspection, it reveals its modern structure and elegance. The material choice imbues this lamp with a subtle warmth and sophistication, creating a timeless aesthetic that blends understated luxury with functional craftsmanship. Like many of the decade’s designs, this lamp masterfully pairs materials and textures. While the dark wooden stem has an understated look and direct the eye upward, the main decorative feature of this lamp is the brass element just above the fabric shade. The structured shade creates a diffused glow, its fabric adding texture and depth to the otherwise minimal silhouette. This highlight of the lamp brings a gentle playfulness to the composition. Every aspect of the model, from the seamless transition between components to the precise, minimal detailing speaks to the commitment to both technical excellence and visual clarity often found in Swedish models.

This effortless and elegant combination of materials speaks to the design prowess of Wernstedt. Characterised by clean lines, natural materials and intuitive functionality, Scandinavian modern design is eternally timeless and timely as this table lamp stunningly showcases.
