Exquisite table lamp 5321

If Arielle, the mermaid's wife, had a desk, then the table lamp 5321 would probably stand on it - a veritable design icon, by the way.

Paavo Tynell's imaginative view of nature finds an elegant echo in the table lamp 5321, which the Finnish designer created in 1938.

Beneath the characteristic shell-inspired brass shade, the light bulb appears subtly from below; a picturesque detail resembling the coveted shell pearl that makes the table lamp 5321 a perfect example of how Tynell brought a playful nature and romanticism to the simplified style of mid-century modernism.

The 5321 table lamp combines timeless aesthetics with a unique sense of form and adds an exquisite character to any modern room.

Both decorative and functional, the lamp is a balance of elegance and curiosity, offering a design that is both subtle and surprising.
