About the Item

Set of 2 LYFA wall lamps manufactured in Denmark in the 1950s. All original condition in beautifully patinated brass and white lacquered inside. The lamps have an adjustable rounded shade and can turn nearly 180 degrees to both uplight or light down. LYFA has since the 1930s won multiple international design awards for their spectacular lamps such as the Gold Medal at the World Fair 1929 in Barcelona and once again in 1935 in Brussels for the RA pendant. LYFA became famous for producing high-quality lighting, which took advantage of new technologies and materials. By the 1950s, LYFA had become an important and significant innovator working with prominent Danish architects and designers such as Piet Hein, Finn Juhl and Bent Karlby.

Large Danish Modern Table Lamps in Brass by Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen, 1960s
By Svend Aage Holm Sørensen
Located in Odense, DK
An amazing set of large table lamps model "4180" by Svend Aage Holm-Sørensen, Denmark. These lamps were handmade in Holm-Sørensens own studio in the 1960s in very low numbers.
