SET OF 5 C-1519 ‘PLANETOID’ WALL LAMPS BY RAAK AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS, 1970S

STUDIO HAAG OFFERS A SET OF 5 ICONIC PLANETOID WALL LAMPS BY RAAK AMSTERDAM. THESE STRIKING LAMPS FEATURE A BLUE ACRYLIC BACKPLATE — EVOKING A COSMIC SKY — WITH AN OPAL GLASS GLOBE EMERGING FROM IT AS THE LIGHT SOURCE. THE RESULT IS A PLAYFUL AND ATMOSPHERIC DESIGN THAT PERFECTLY CAPTURES THE EXPERIMENTAL SPIRIT OF 1970S DUTCH LIGHTING.

THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE DEEP BLUE BACKGROUND AND THE SOFTLY GLOWING OPAL GLASS CREATES A UNIQUE AMBIENCE, BOTH SCULPTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL. WHEN LIT, THE LAMPS RESEMBLE PLANETS FLOATING AGAINST THE NIGHT SKY, GIVING THEM A DISTINCTIVE SPACE-AGE CHARACTER.

ALL 5 LAMPS ARE IN VERY GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION AND HAVE BEEN PROFESSIONALLY REWIRED FOR IMMEDIATE USE. A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE MULTIPLE EXAMPLES OF ONE OF RAAK’S MOST EXPRESSIVE DESIGNS — TRUE COLLECTOR’S PIECES FOR MID-CENTURY AND SPACE-AGE INTERIORS.
