Description
Kaare Klint (1888–1954) Desk lamp or wall lamp Model 306 Brass and pleated paper shade Le Klint edition, Denmark Date of creation: circa 1960 H43 W35 D35 cm Regarded as the father of modern Danish design, Kaare Klint profoundly influenced several generations of Scandinavian designers through his approach based on functionality, the quality of materials and rigorous proportions. His work remains one of the major benchmarks of 20th-century Nordic design. Model 306 is one of the most iconic creations produced by Le Klint. Designed according to the principles that have made the Danish manufacturer famous, it combines an elegant brass structure with a pleated shade crafted using a traditional technique that has become the brand’s signature. The sinuous brass base lends the piece a remarkable visual lightness, whilst the shade diffuses a soft, warm light, characteristic of Scandinavian lighting from this period. The fact that the model can be used as both a desk lamp and a wall light reflects the pursuit of versatility so dear to post-war Danish design. Through the purity of its design, the quality of its materials and the quality of its light, this model perfectly illustrates the blend of craftsmanship and modernity that has secured Le Klint’s international reputation.
