VINTAGE VIEW will be at Rikketik on November 15 — come say hi! 👋
We present to you... a very blue desk lamp!
Made by French lighting manufacturer Aluminor in the 1970s, this little beauty features an electric blue finish and an unmistakable retro appearance. A fantastic piece of everyday vintage design.
During the 1970s, desk lamps were becoming much more than just practical office equipment. Manufacturers experimented with bold colours, unusual shapes and flexible constructions, creating lighting that was both functional and fun.
And this one certainly delivers! Featuring a bright blue conical metal shade, a matching circular base and a wonderfully flexible ribbed gooseneck that allows you to direct the light exactly where you need it.
But perhaps the best thing about this lamp is its colour. That vibrant blue finish gives it an almost toy-like appearance, while the geometric shade and simple construction bring a touch of industrial design to the mix. It's playful, practical and unmistakably seventies!
Condition: Good vintage condition with visible signs of age and use.
Dimensions (H × W × D): 35 × 15 × 15 cm
Brand: Aluminor
Reference: 01/01
Era: 1970s
Material: Metal base and shade, plastic gooseneck
Bulb: E14
