This is a vintage SMC Boxford table lamp (also known as the 'Penta' model or VHB-004BK), designed by Robert Sonneman (produced for George Kovacs / SMC Boxford Holland in the 1980s) in a striking Memphis Milano style. The architectural and symmetrical design is heavily inspired by the Memphis movement and the famous Pausania lamp by Ettore Sottsass. The lamp features a heavy cast-iron base with two black-coated metal pillars that support a thick sheet of tempered glass. Lighting and operation: Beneath the glass panel is a halogen light source (up to 100W) fitted with a grid/grille. A built-in rotary dimmer on the base allows for stepless adjustment of the light intensity. The lamp has a cast-iron base, upon which rest two gold-colored metal pillars, with a glass panel serving as the 'shade.' A rotary switch is mounted on the base, allowing the lamp to be dimmed. It is carefully packed for shipping to prevent damage.
