This Hélion table lamp from the 1950s is a classic example of functional design with a clear Bauhaus influence. The design is characterized by a curved, silver-colored metal arm connecting the distinctive black shade to a sturdy, round base.
The lamp is crafted from metal and finished in a deep black color, creating a strong contrast with the silver-colored arm. The shade is adjustable, allowing the light to be directed exactly where it is needed. The wiring has been renewed, contributing to the safety and functionality of this vintage piece. The original markings, including 'Hélion ges. geschützt', are still clearly visible on the socket.
This reading lamp is in good vintage condition, with an authentic patina befitting its age. The renewed wiring ensures the lamp is ready for immediate use.
This is an ideal piece for a desk in a home office or as an atmospheric reading lamp on a side table. Its timeless, industrial character fits perfectly into both modern and vintage-inspired interiors.
