About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
Rare Boréns Borås table lamp, model B8456, made in Sweden in the 1950s. This model is among the most sought-after creations of the renowned Swedish manufacturer and perfectly illustrates post-war Scandinavian design. The brown leather-covered stem is paired with a large, hemispherical shade in brushed brass, creating a simple yet elegant silhouette.
The white lacquered interior ensures excellent light diffusion thanks to its two light points, while the small brass knob at the top is a characteristic detail of this model.
