Rare Floor Lamp by RAAK, 1970

Rare Floor Lamp – RAAK, Netherlands, 1970
Opaline glass & brushed metal – Sculptural Dutch modernism

This rare floor lamp, produced by RAAK in 1970, is a striking example of the studio’s distinctive approach to lighting — where form, atmosphere, and materiality merge seamlessly. A cylindrical brushed metal shaft supports a wide opaline glass saucer, creating a harmonious balance between industrial minimalism and soft, diffused illumination.

With its generous proportions — 60 cm in height and 62 cm in diameter — the lamp stands as a functional sculpture, perfect for both refined workspaces and contemporary interiors. The brushed finish offers a cool, modernist texture, while the opaline glass emits a warm, ambient glow.

Retaining its original RAAK label, the piece carries desirable provenance for collectors of 20th-century Dutch design. A minor dent in the metal is present, yet does little to detract from the lamp’s strong visual and architectural presence.

A rare and timeless object, ideal for those seeking character, light, and design history in one.
