It's one of the most distinctive lamps from the time and could be argued to be a design classic. It's main features are the oversized power button on the circular base, a fixed arm which has a thicker lower section, in a dark grey colour, and a diminutive and elegantly shaped shade which is freely adjustable.

This one is in an off-white colour, a very light grey with a hint of mushroom and it's a good example. There is some minor wear to the shade and some minor losses to the arm, but otherwise it's in good condition and working. The lamp can be used both on a desk or table top or wall mounted, with the latter bringing that large button and fixed arm into their own.

The lamp has a base with a diameter of approximately 14cm and a depth of 4cm whilst the lamp itself has a total height of approximately 33cm (with the shade positioned parallel to the lower part of the arm). The lampbolder takes a standard bayonet style bulb.

Functionally it's an eyeball lamp which anchors magnetically to its wall mount and aesthetically it's a mix of simple shapes and minimalist lines wrapped up in an absolutely-no-frills package. It's absolute understatement, but very vocal about how well engineered and how closely designed it has been. The box illustrates some possible uses of the lamp - for focusing light on a particular area, for reading, etc. - but it almost goes without saying that this lamp itself now is likely to be the centre of attention rather than what it is illuminating.

This one is almost flawless in terms of condition (the box and small manual aside), and seemingly never used for its intended purpose. The wall mount measures approximately 11.5cm (4½ in.) square with a depth of 2.5 cm (1 in.).  The "eyeball" is approximately 10cm (4 in.) in diameter with a bulb opening of 5cm (2 in.). The bulb holder is a small screw type (E14) with a maximum wattage of 40W recommended. Installation is easy and instructions provided. You may even be tempted to use this as a desk or table light... which is what we have had in mind for it ourselves!

Serious offers are welcomed for this highly unusual and uncommon item.
