Wall light Bestlite BL10 -30 %

Läck Friday 🖤

The Bestlite BL10 wall lamp, designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930, was originally used in tailoring shops because of its flexible arm and the ability to direct light without casting shadows. Today it is used more as a bedside lamp or as a reading lamp in the living room, where this exceptional lamp radiates character and intensity.

An article in the Architects Journal, in which 'Bestlite' was honoured with the title of the first proof of the Bauhaus in Great Britain, brought the lamp into design consciousness. Public demand for the 'Bestlite' lamps soon followed, and when Winston Churchill personally chose the Bestlite BL1 table lamp for his desk, iconic status was assured.

The Bestlite design remains close to its industrial roots and true to its original design. The Bestlite is in the permanent collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Design Museum in London.

Loved by architects, designers and design lovers throughout its long history, 'Bestlite' has become a contemporary classic.
