Wolfgang & Pola Hoffmann American Art Deco Reading Lamp

Reference: 

MPD-001648
Description

This American art deco lamp was designed by Wolfgang (1900-1969) and Pola (1902-1984) Hoffmann ca. 1931. The impressive 24” tall lamp sits on an 8” chrome and black enamel base. The lamp has a revolving cylinder which is rotated by turning the ball finial on the top…allowing a discrete light for reading or, a wall washing light to the rear or, by turning a switch on the base, no light at all. An early version of the lamp is pictured in the December 1931 issue of Creative Art where it is described as “night reading lamp with movable shade designed by Wolfgang and Pola Hoffmann.” The lamp is in excellent condition and has been rewired.
