Lamp LP 181
Table lamp with bracket, named model LP 181, with a blackened and bent right-angle metal blade support forming a base.
A mounting bracket in trapezoidal cut-out, which can be moved along its entire length, allows the lamp to be adjusted according to the desired lighting.
This poterne also serves as an attachment for two diffusers made of alabaster plates cut in quarter discs, spreading a soft and subtle light, which contrasts with the roughness of the blackened metal.
Circa :1922.
