This wall-mounted swing arm lamp was produced in Scandinavia during the 1950s–1960s and is attributed to Uno and Osten Kristiansson. The structure is crafted in solid rosewood, with a slender horizontal arm that pivots from a compact wall mount. The proportions are controlled and deliberate, allowing the arm to extend outward while maintaining a balanced profile.

The articulated arm provides horizontal adjustability, making it suitable for reading or directed illumination. Suspended from the arm, the teardrop-shaped glass shade is formed in blown glass with an olive green tone. This form is characteristic of the Danish glassmaker Holmegaard, known for similar organic profiles. A small turned wood finial connects the shade to the cord, reinforcing the continuity between the suspended element and the wooden structure.

The lamp is in very good vintage condition. The wood surfaces show light wear consistent with age, with a stable structure and intact hardware. The glass shade is well preserved, with no significant damage observed. The electrical system is functional, with an inline switch present.

A considered lighting piece where material contrast and movement are resolved into a clear and functional form.
