Designer: Wilhelm Wagenfeld

Designed: 1924

The Bauhaus lamp has a modern classic furniture design. It was design by Wilhelm Wagenfeld in 1923 while he worked in Bauhaus, specializing in metal processing. The lamp was ordered by Lszl Moholy-Nagy and manufactured by one of Wagenfeld’s Swiss co-workers. It is one of the most famous lamps in the history. It has an milky-glass shade (inside opal glass; outside clear glass) with chromium-plated steel frame, and a glass body with an On/Off switch with a chain hoist. This elegant and chaste design makes it perfect to locate it on reception desks, living rooms as well as nightstands. Measures: 18cm diameter and 36cm height.
