Aluminor desk lamp, vintage, 70s

Aluminor articulated desk lamp in white color. Made in france in the 70s. It is composed of a white saucer-shaped bowl and offers a soft and diffused light. It will be perfect in your workspace but also as a bedside lamp. It is easily adjustable with its chrome rod slide system. Design icon of the 70s, orientable, robust and airy, it fits perfectly with a contemporary décor. Note some visible traces of use that emphasize its authenticity and gives it a certain charm. It is in its juice and in working order. For the record: the company, founded in 1950 in contes, specializes in the design, manufacture and marketing of interior lighting. The director of the time, andré lavigne, is at the origin of the creation of several desk lamps with to his credit, some patents filed including one concerning an articulation hinge, still in use. Considered one of the last manufacturers of interior lighting in france, aluminor had a prosperous period, employing up to 80 employees. When the founder died in the 80s, the company was taken over by his children who changed their strategy, favored imported products and abandoned the production tool. Society loses its beauty. In 2018 in lyon, two partners richard barbett and vincent overney bought the company to give it a new lease of life. "made in france" is an undeniable added value. In three years, aluminor shines again.
