This vintage table lamp was produced by Temde Leuchten, a German-Swiss lighting manufacturer known for its high-quality European lamps from the mid- to late 20th century. Dating back to the 1970s, the lamp reflects the period's focus on solid construction, warm materials, and a functional yet decorative design.
The lamp features a sculptural base combined with a soft, diffused light that provides a warm, atmospheric glow when switched on. Its proportions are well-balanced, with a height of approximately 46 cm and a shade diameter of 26 cm, making it suitable for use on a side table, console table, desk, or nightstand. The light output is ambient rather than harsh, ideal for creating a calming interior ambiance.
Temde Leuchten was known for combining traditional craftsmanship with modern production techniques, often using wood, metal, and high-quality synthetic materials. This lamp fits perfectly into that tradition, offering both a striking appearance and everyday usability. The design fits well in mid-century modern, postmodern, and contemporary interiors, without overpowering the surrounding furniture.
The lamp is in good vintage condition, with minor signs of wear consistent with its age. It is fully functional and ready to use. This piece was carefully selected in Antwerp, Belgium, for its condition, proportions, and authentic European character.
