'Lampampe' table lamp by Ingo Maurer,
Germany, 1980
£1,650
The Lampampe, a distinctive table lamp created by Ingo Maurer in 1980, is a testament to elegant design and craftsmanship. Handcrafted in Munich, it features a shade made from Japanese paper that diffuses soft, glare-free light. The paper's intentionally subtle creases enhance its unique and artistic character.
With its minimalist design, the Lampampe is versatile, serving both as a table lamp and as a floor lamp when placed on low tables. It doubles as a sculptural piece, seamlessly complementing a variety of interior settings. The timeless charm of its design, coupled with the poetic texture of the Japanese paper, creates a serene and inviting atmosphere.
This particular model is an early edition, showcasing a light beige paper. It remains in good condition, with minor marks that reflect its vintage character. Additionally, the lamp is fitted with an EU cable plug.
