Prototype of a table lamp, designed by Gerrit Rietveld 1925,
prototype manufactured by Flos for Cassina, reduced adjustable metal construction, the illuminants replaced. Produced by Flos in the late 1970s for Cassina, height approx. 38 cm. (MHA)
This table light, which was designed by Gerrit Rietveld in 1925, was never produced industrially. The original is now in the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and was a gift from the architect. For an exhibition featuring the work of Gerrit Rietveld, Flos was asked by Cassina to build three of these iconic table lights. During the exhibition, only one of these lamps was on display, while the two others were kept in reserve. Later on, Hans-Rüdiger Bruckmann received one of the spare lamps from the Flos sample studio.
