Louis Kalff Z Shaped Desk Lamp for Philips, Netherlands 1950

Very rare table lamp designed by Louis Kalff, manufactured by Philips in the Netherands. An elegant table lamp made of high quality black lacquered metal with brass armature. The straight shapes of the arm create a Z-shaped counter balance design that gives it a very nice, appealing style. It has a disk shaped hood that holds the upwards light and only allows it to shine through small perforated details. The rest of light emits brighlty downwards, making this an ideal table lamp. It remains in very good, vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina.
