An elegant and increasingly rare pair of model 720 wall lights, designed by uno & östen kristiansson and produced by luxus vittsjö, sweden, during the 1960s. beautifully representative of swedish scandinavian modern design, model 720 combines the warmth of solid oak with softly diffused white acrylic shades to create a refined architectural wall light. The simple cylindrical form reflects the kristiansson brothers' philosophy of honest materials, clean lines and functional beauty. each lamp features a solid oak body supporting an original white acrylic diffuser. When illuminated, the acrylic produces a warm, glare-free light, softly illuminating both the wall and surrounding space. The balanced proportions and restrained detailing make these lamps equally suited to hallways, bedrooms, living rooms or as bedside lighting. luxus became internationally recognised during the 1950s and 1960s for combining traditional swedish cabinetmaking with innovative lighting design. The kristiansson brothers were pioneers in pairing natural timber with acrylic diffusers, creating lighting that remains instantly recognisable today. original examples of model 720 are seldom encountered, particularly as a matching pair retaining their original shades. details model: 720 designers: uno & östen kristiansson manufacturer: luxus vittsjö country: sweden production period: 1960s materials solid oak white acrylic diffusers original fittings dimensions height: 17 cm depth: 19 cm diameter: 10 cm electrical 1 × e27 bulb per lamp 110–240v led compatible professionally checked and fully functional condition very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age and use.
