Floor lamp model 2564

Designed by Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn

Sweden, 1950s

An elegant and timeless Josef Frank floor lamp, designed with the understated sophistication that defines his work for Svenskt Tenn. Crafted in brass with an adjustable stem and a pleated fabric shade, the lamp rests on a circular base supported by finely turned mahogany feet. The warm brass surface and soft textile create a harmonious balance of texture and tone, giving the piece both visual and tactile richness.

Frank viewed lighting as a vital part of interior design—an instrument to create warmth and atmosphere rather than mere illumination. His philosophy of layered, diffused light is beautifully embodied here, where proportion, material, and craftsmanship unite in quiet elegance.

Austrian-born and later naturalized in Sweden, Josef Frank became one of the leading figures of Scandinavian modernism. This Josef Frank floor lamp exemplifies his enduring belief that function and beauty should exist in perfect harmony.
