Wire from Verpan

This fantastic and completely unique table lamp was designed by Verner Panton and is bound to look great on the desk. The lamp was designed to look like an electrical bulb with a twist, and the body itself is carefully twisted along a chromed metal wire and crowned with a plastic lampshade that covers the bulb so it doesn’t blind. Available in white and yellow and in a small version that’ll be a lovely addition to your desk.


Bestlite from Gubi

The Bestlite lamps were designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930 and are highly coveted worldwide, thanks to their strong references to the Bauhaus style. Winston Churchill, previous prime minister of the United Kingdom, personally selected the Bestlite BL1 table lamp for his desk at Whitehall, and the story goes that Churchill brought the lamp with him on his many trips around the world. This became the big break-through for Bestlite, and it’s now one of the big sellers from Gubi. The lamp is available in many different models and adds an exclusive look to your desk.

Kizu from New Works

The New Works Kizu table lamp consists of two opposite-facing geometric shapes, and it looks more like two sculptures balancing on top of one another than an actual table lamp.

At first glance, Kizu looks like it could fall over at any moment. Naturally, that’s an illusion. It makes the lamp a fun and elegant addition to your desk.

In spring 2018, the lamp came out in a new black marble colour and a smaller size.
