An iconic “bulb” table lamp designed by the renowned lighting designer ingo maurer in the 1960s for design m, germany. This striking piece is one of maurer’s earliest and most celebrated designs, playfully reinterpreting the classic light bulb in an oversized sculptural form. This is the largest version from the bulb series, a model that has not been produced for many years and is therefore increasingly rare and highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts. A true statement piece and eye-catcher, combining functionality with sculptural elegance — a hallmark of maurer’s visionary work. The lamp remains in very good vintage condition, showing only minor signs of age and a beautiful natural patina consistent with its era. Heavy quality and in very good condition. The fixture requires one e27 standard bulb with 100w max light bulbs are not included. It is possible to install this fixture in all countries (us, uk, europe, asia, australia,\.) this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution, up to 250v (europe/uk standard).the wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
