Gubi Cobra Wall lamp White

Icon of the modern era The uniquely shaped lamp shade resembles the head of a cobra, which gives the Cobra lamp its name. This extravagant wall lamp was designed in 1947 by the Swedish designer and interior designer Greta Magnusson Grossman, who in the 1950s counted Frank Sinatra and Greta Garbo as customers. She had a preference for natural forms. The Cobra was a very great success. When design connoisseurs talk about snake charmers they are certainly referring to this famous lamp. New edition Grossman received the prestigious Good Design Award from the MoMA in New York for its Cobra lamp series. The lamp then became part of the Good Design exhibition. The Danish manufacturer Gubi has rediscovered this classic lamp and produces it today in accordance with the original Grossman design as a licensed reissue. Flexible The graceful and highly movable shade of the Cobra wall lamp can be tilted 90° from vertical to horizontal and rotated 360° using a ball joint. This allows the snake-headed shade and light to be directed in any direction. This provides the user with a range of different lighting options for various purposes. The Cobra wall lamp from Gubi scatters indirect light and thus creates a pleasant atmosphere in the room. Faithful to the original The reflector and the wall holder are made of powder-coated aluminium and are connected to each other by a small rod made of polished brass. A traditional on/off pressure switch brass is hidden behind the reflector, another nice detail from this time. More information This Gubi Cobra wall lamp is designed to be connected to a power outlet and comes with a 2.5 meter cord and plug. If you have the option to mount the lamp directly at a power point, Gubi has as an alternative the same model in a version without cord and plug . The Gubi Cobra wall lamp is available in black or matt white. It can be used with a energy-saving bulb or a 230-volt halogen lamp and generates a pleasant, uniform light. In addition to the two shapely wall lamps, the extravagant Cobra lamp is also available as a table lamp and floor lamp, so you can light your entire room with matching lamps of the Cobra lamp series.
