Umbrella floor lamp, Gijs Bakker for Artimeta 1973
A rare and unique floor lamp, designed by Gijs Bakker in 1973. It already shows the re-interpretation of well known objects Gijs bakker and his company Droog Design would become famous for. In this case the umbrella is used as the feflecting shade of a lamp. And of course, just like an ubrella, it collapses too.
It was produced in small numbers by the avant-garde lighting company Artimeta. Two pieces of the fabric hav been replaced by new ones. For the rest it is in a very good and fully functional condition. This is a very rare floor lamp by one of the most important Dutch designers. A lamp with character, which emits a wonderful soft light
