A modernist table lamp by Christian Dell for the Kaiser Company, Neheim-Hüsten, Germany Model 6561, designed by the head of the Bauhaus metalwork department in the late 1930s Materials: Black lacquered steel shade and metal base with flexible chromed metal upright. It is stamped 'Kaiser Idell Original' to the rear of shade. This iconic so called 'swan-necked' Bauhaus lamp is a stunning example of Bauhaus functionalism and considerably harder to find than the 6556. Size: About 48cm (19 inches) in height. The diameter of the shade is 16cm. Condition: The lamp is in very good used condition with only minor surface wear to the lacquer but no significant damages such as splits or dents to the metal. It retains its original switch. It appears to have been rewired at some point (with Continental European plug) by a previous owner and works. It takes standard screw-type bulbs that are readily available from any UK or European supermarket. Please note that in common with all vintage electrical items it must be checked by a qualified electrician before use. Please see my important note concerning the sale of all vintage electrical items below. As the master in charge of the metalwork department at the Staatliches Bauhaus in Weimar, Christian Dell (1893-1974) worked in close collaboration with other modernist luminaries such as Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Marianne Brandt, Hin Bredendieck and Hans Przyrembel. Although also a silversmith and jeweller he is now best known as functionalist innovator and a key figure in the development of industrial lighting. His significance in the story of twentieth century design is becoming increasingly recognised by museums worldwide. In all, a stunning piece of functional vintage modernism by an important Bauhaus designer. Will make a fabulous addition to any Art Deco, Modernist, mid-century or contemporary setting.

Payment and Postage Paypal is accepted and I do not add a surcharge to cover their fees. UK buyers only may also pay by cheque or postal order. If it's a cheque, please allow 7 to 10 days for it to clear. In exceptional circumstances it may be possible for overseas customers to pay another means such as bank transfer in GBP£ by arrangement. The postage charges shown are calculated at cost and include both tracking and insurance in the price. Tracking is required to comply with Paypal's buyer and seller protection programs. Please note that because this item exceeds the maximum weight for small parcels (2KG), all international shipments will be sent via Parcelforce. All buyers please make contact within 3 days of auction. Payment is required within 7 days. If you can't see the postage price pertinant to your country please ask. Because I'm only allowed to show three options, the shipping price to Ireland is not shown. Non-payment All non-paying bidders are, without exception, reported to eBay. This is not done out of anger, or for the sake of being vindictive, but because eBay charges retrospective fees calculated on the actual sale price of items and this money needs to be retrieved. Believe me it is hard enough to make ends meet on here as it is! Thank you for your understanding. Please refer to eBay's policy on non-payment for more information, including its ramifications for the bidder. If you have any doubts, please do ask before bidding. Condition of items Please note that, unless clearly stated otherwise, my listings are for vintage/antique objects and therefore, by definition, are not going to be in the same condition you would expect from a brand new item. Please be assured that I always endeavour to offer the most accurate description possible of the item's condition and take multiple illustrative photographs. Vintage electrical items Unless clearly stated otherwise in the description, vintage electrical items are sold in their original condition without electrical guarantee and must always be safety-checked by a qualified electrician before use in the country of use. Returns Returns are possible, if reported within 7 days and by prior arrangement, if a mistake has been made in the listing and the item is not as described, but for no other reason. Unfortunately simple buyer's remorse cannot qualify and the cost of return postage is not included in any refund. Please don't hesitate to e-mail me to ask any questions not covered above; I always endeavour to answer as promptly as possible. Thanks very much for taking the time to read this and best of luck bidding! |
