Baby Blue Folding lamp by Metek
Designer: Metek - UK
Maker: Metek - UK
Year: 1950s
Size: H 250 x W 120 x D 200 (Adjustable)
Condition Report: Vintage condition. Wear / chipping to paint inline with age.
.
Originally designed for travel, this vintage Metek desk lamp offers a unique balance of form and function. connected by a single metal rod hinged at each end, the base and shade of the lamp can be adjusted into a variety of positions. Extend the connections out for use on a desk, or bring the two halves together to provide a clam-like casing around the bulb.
A spring clamp of the base allows for it to be clamped to a tables edge or the side of a shelf, a useful function while on the move.
We are always intrigued by pieces that offer a hidden function beyond their core usage, and this lamp is a great example of this.
