Fantastic 1960s Floor Lamp by Staff Leuchten of Germany

This very unique floor lamp features a minimalist design of cast iron propeller base (freshly repainted), chrome stem, and oversize linen shade with proprietary fitting. The function of this lamp is also unique: it has one bulb pointing upwards and amplified by a white enamel metal reflector, and two bulbs pointing downwards; these can be used in concert or independently via the two string and chrome pulls. There is also a foot pedal switch at the bottom, should that method of operation be preferred. Overall excellent condition, some staining to the shade but fortunately this is primarily located on the back of it. A fabulous example of German engineering and mid century design. 63"H, shade is 20" in diameter, $595
