Product description
A vintage ultraviolet table lamp by Philips, a characteristic example of Dutch industrial design. This piece combines functionality with a distinct mid-century aesthetic, originally designed for therapeutic use but now a sought-after design object.
The lamp is entirely made of metal with a cream-colored lacquer finish. The design includes an adjustable head with a distinctive wire cage, mounted on a slender stand with a round base. The original Philips 'Ultra Violet' lamp, made in the Netherlands, is still present, emphasizing the authenticity of the piece.
In good, working vintage condition, the lamp shows a characteristic patina consistent with its age and history. The original wiring and plug have been preserved, contributing to the historical value of the object.
This lamp is a striking addition to a desk, side table, or dresser. Its functional and sculptural character fits well within various interior styles, from Mid-Century Modern and industrial to eclectic and vintage-inspired spaces.
