This striking table lamp exemplifies the bold, innovative design principles of the Art Deco movement, which dominated the later first half of the 20th century. Known for its sleek lines, geometric forms and luxurious materials, the Art Deco style merged modernity with opulence, drawing inspiration from industrial progress and the glamour of the Jazz Age.

Crafted by WMF (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik), a renowned German manufacturer famed for its expertise in metalwork and design, the lamp embodies the company’s reputation for high-quality craftsmanship and avant-garde aesthetics. The Ikora line, specifically, refers to WMF’s pioneering use of reflective, highly-polished metals such as chrome, which was revolutionary in the 1930s. The use of chrome gives this lamp a sleek finish that complements the era’s preference for minimalism and functional elegance. The lamp’s design is further characterized by its clean, geometric silhouette, with its marked roundness. Today, this WMF Ikora table lamp remains highly prized for its aesthetic value, and the legacy of WMF’s commitment to design excellence. During the 1930s, Art Deco reflected the optimism and technological advancements of the interwar period, with a focus on both form and function. The use of chrome as a primary material mirrored the era’s fascination with industrial design and the machine age, making this lamp not just a functional object but a statement piece of modernist decor.

This lamp is a perfect example of the fusion of craftsmanship, style, and cutting-edge materials that defined the Art Deco era. This lamp exudes timeless beauty, making it a perfect choice to complement any interior.
