Wrought iron table lamp made in Sweden circa 1910—20s, in the Arts & Crafts style. The base is an openwork dome of bent and forged iron rods, worked into intertwined S- and C-scrolls and spiral volutes that meet a flat circular iron ring at the floor. A hand-forged stem rises from the centre of the scrolled dome, its surface showing the soft unevenness of hand-wrought iron, and carries the shade above it. The shade is a tall, tapering cone woven in natural straw over a multi-rib wire frame, its flat panels divided by the ribs beneath and both rims bound in red and natural cord. Lit, the woven shade glows warm amber and gives a soft, comfortable light. A beaded pull-chain switch hangs beside the stem and the twisted, cloth-covered cord runs down through the openwork base. The lamp has new wiring and is ready to use. Very good vintage condition, with a nice patina and light surface wear consistent with age. Measurements: height 48 cm, diameter of shade 28,5 cm, diameter of base 18,5 cm.
