About the Item

Large flat ceiling lamp with a pleated shade in light textile, formed as a broad circular plane with a pronounced radial structure. The generous scale gives the lamp an elegant, architectural presence, while the low profile and pleating create a soft, even light. Suspension and ceiling canopy in patinated brass. A restrained example of Swedish lighting design from the 1940s, defined by function, material sensitivity, and subtle decoration.
