By the 1950s, Lyfa had built an international reputation for original, high-quality, modernist lamps. In the postwar era, the company collaborated with esteemed architects and designers to produce minimalist, sculptural pieces including this table lamp.

This lamp stands firmly in Danish design lineage, balancing a sculptural presence with practical light diffusion, and embodying the craftsmanship and material honesty that became hallmarks of modern Scandinavian design. Made out of brass and wood, the lamp carries a beautiful warm hue lingering through its body. The thin, circular base provides stable grounding, with the stem slightly thicker at the bottom then gracefully tapering with a curved edge. The true crown of the lamp is the richly textured shade, composed of a delicate combination of fabric and brass. The perfect balance of proportions, delicate colours, as well as the soft glow of light coming from under the wide opening of the shade creates a piece that can bring harmony to any interior.

This lamp encapsulates the transitional moment of Danish design in the mid-20th century, bridging ornament and restraint. Its combination of brass and wood, decorative detail and functional purpose, reflects the enduring appeal of Scandinavian craftsmanship, where beauty was always tied to utility.
