About the Item

The Swedish company, ASEA, was established in the late 19th century, and was known for producing high-quality lighting fixtures for residential and commercial spaces. ASEA often collaborated with leading architects and designers, such as Lisa Johansson-Pape and Sven Aage Holm Sorensen, to ensure cutting edge and highly coveted lighting solutions. Several of their works feature a minimalist and functional design, distinctive details, and high-quality materials, like this pair of table lamps. The design focuses on the slender, leather-wrapped stem rising from a circular brass base, creating a clear vertical line that feels delicate, yet is sturdy through the use of its materials. The leather introduces warmth and tactility into the otherwise minimal composition, softening the precision of the brass structure. At the same time, the brown tone contrasts the polished elements of the bodies. At the top, the pleated fabric shades provide a soft, diffused light and add a gentle decorative note without disrupting the overall restraint. The proportions are well thought-out: the height of the stem elongates the silhouette, while the compact base anchors the piece without drawing attention. The interaction between materials and skilled design choices create a layered composition that remains calm and cohesive. By the mid-20th century, Swedish lighting had begun to incorporate a broader mix of materials beyond metal and glass. ASEA's designs from this period frequently reflect these innovations, resulting in objects that feel both modern and unique, like this beautiful pair. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The lamps have recently been reconditioned and rewired. Due to the nature and age of the material, the items may have some marks, scratches, and discolouration. The shades are later replacements. The lamps are compatible with E26 / E27 (standard) fittings. All lighting can be converted for US usage. Dimensions: 13.78 in ø x 24.41 in H 35 cm ø x 62 cm H
