German floor lamp metal and plastic Tripod Ufo 370 by Bega, 1950s

This is a rare mid-century tripod floor lamp by the famous manufacturer Bega from the 1950s/60s. This lamp is characterised by its simplicity and robust elegance. The solid tripod frame is painted grey. What stands out particularly is the shade made of translucent plastic with a texture. The edge of the shade is reinforced with metal. The base and the porcelain socket are marked Bega. There is slight wear consistent with age and use, with some damage to the shade. A professional electrician has confirmed that this piece is in working order.
