The table lamp made of chrome-plated metal is in very good condition with appealing patina. The lamp dates from the 1960s and was modeled on a bamboo base in the design. Ingo Maurer is known for its high-quality lights. The table lamp was re-wired. The design as well as the product are both from Ingo Maurer. A company that was initially founded by Ingo Maurer in 1966 under the name "Design M". Manual production by hand was an important part of the corporate philosophy and guaranteed high quality products from the start. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs, designer records, or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution, European Plug (up to 250V).The wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
