Product description
1950s original vintage Le Klint hand-folded acrylic pleated shade with a sculptural black metal floor lamp base. One available.
This classic Scandinavian mid century modern floor lamp features an authentic stamped Le Klint shade, a Danish company famous and collectible for their origami pleated shades. It creates a beautifully warm, architectural, and atmospheric light. Paired with a simple slender tripod frame with an integrated magazine holder, this lamp is designed for reading beside a lounge chair or sofa, and is equally sculpture in its form.
This rare vintage example has been fitted with an internal wire structure which preserves the iconic pleated silhouette without being visible when it is lit and unlit. The acrylic shade shows age-related wear including small tears and subtle warping acquired naturally over decades of use. These signs of aging show the authenticity of the piece, and do not visually distract from the lamp’s striking appearance both lit or unlit. A piece for collectors of Danish modern lighting, Scandinavian interiors, and vintage Le Klint design.

Condition
Age-related wear consistent with decades of use. Original stamped hand-folded acrylic Le Klint shade retains its sculptural form with a newly fitted internal wire structure which does not affect its outer appearance when lit or unlit. The shade has small tears, warping, and surface aging visible in photographs, please review them carefully. These imperfections are typical for authentic vintage Le Klint shades of this age and are mostly only visible up close. Please message for more photographs if needed.
Safety and Compatibility
The lamp has been fitted with a new E14 socket and is fully functional, 220V. It has an inline switch and plug. May require adaptation depending on your country’s standards.

The lampshade and base may be shipped in two shipments for shipping safety due to its fragility. Your item will be carefully packed and shipped with insurance and tracking.
