Kay kørbing saga wall lamps, produced by lyfa denmark 1950-1960s.

Kay kørbing saga wall lamps, produced by lyfa denmark 1950-1960s. Produced by lyfa and designed by the danish architect kay kørbing, these “saga” wall lamps are true collector's items. This pair of “saga” wall lamps is a great example of how the 1960s is still able to deliver modern “art” to any interior. The manufacturer lyfa produced some cabinet lamps and in its heyday - from the 1950s to the mid-1970s - was considered a pioneer in innovative architectural lighting. It is believed that kay kørbing designed this model for two school ships: m/s princesse margrethe and m/s winston churchill. In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The brass body has a beautiful patina with some marks and discoloration. The glass has some minimal chips along the edge, please see the last two pictures. The black metal parts have scratches and some places without black paint, but we have not wanted to repaint them as we want them to be completely original. They measure approximately 36 cm in length, 12 cm in width and protrude approximately 14 cm from the wall. And they weigh approx. 2075-2150 grams each, great lamps in good quality. All original parts are present. They are for fixed connection directly to the wall, so the wire in the picture is only to show them with light in. One bulb is included per lamp (has a standard e26/e27 porcelain socket). The price is for the pair = both lamps and they are only sold together as it would be a shame to separate them. Packed securely and sent with insurance.
