About the Item
Striking industrial flush mount ceiling lamp designed by Louis Kalff for Philips in the 1950s, model NT 52 E/00. This distinctive piece features a dark grayish blue enameled shade with geometric linear cut-outs that create dramatic shadow play, paired with a warm beige enameled base. The graphic cut-out design exemplifies Kalff's innovative approach to functional lighting, transforming a utilitarian fixture into a sculptural element.
Constructed from enameled steel, the lamp showcases thoughtful engineering with its ventilated shade design that allows heat dissipation while casting intriguing light patterns. The contrasting color palette of moody blue-gray and soft beige reflects the refined industrial aesthetic that defined Dutch Mid-Century Modern design. Kalff's attention to both form and function makes this fixture equally compelling whether illuminated or at rest.
Presented in original condition with visible wear including scratches, possible denting, age spotting, and some enamel loss, all consistent with age and use. These authentic marks speak to the lamp's well-lived history and industrial heritage. Another version without cut-outs is also available and listed separately (LU922442266022).
