The WG-24 Desk Lamp by Wilhelm Wagenfeld for Tecnolumen, Sweden, 1980s
The WG-24 desk lamp, designed by Wilhelm Wagenfeld and produced by Tecnolumen, is a faithful reissue of one of the most iconic Bauhaus designs. Originally conceived in 1924 while Wagenfeld was working under László Moholy-Nagy at the Bauhaus in Weimar, this lamp embodies the movement’s defining principles: functionality, simplicity, and honest materials. This particular version, made in the 1980s by Tecnolumen, is officially licensed and produced to the original specifications — ensuring both historical accuracy and outstanding craftsmanship.
This edition features a rounded translucent green glass base, paired with a glass stem and opal glass shade. The interplay of transparent and frosted glass creates a sense of visual lightness that is quintessentially Bauhaus. When illuminated, the lamp produces a soft, diffused light ideal for reading or desk work, while its refined form makes it a natural fit for both modern and classic interiors.
Long considered a masterpiece of functional design, the WG-24 remains a highly sought-after object among collectors and design enthusiasts alike. This 1980s Tecnolumen edition, in excellent condition, represents a rare opportunity to own a piece that seamlessly combines historical significance, timeless aesthetics, and everyday practicality — a true testament to the enduring legacy of Bauhaus design.
