Product information
Product description
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.
