White floor lamp "Close Encounter" and plant stand by Kerst Koopman

The Close Encounter floor lamp by Kerst Koopman is an iconic piece of postmodern Dutch Space Age design from the 1980s, and much more than just a light source. This rare and sculptural object combines lighting, storage, and display in a striking architectural form, making it a true conversation piece for any interior. The design is constructed from stacked cylindrical volumes in lacquered wood and PVC, topped with a luminous opaline glass sphere that diffuses a warm and atmospheric light. Originally part of the Bergers collection and produced in a signed limited edition, it is now a highly sought-after collector's item. Its multifunctional arrangement allows it to be used as a plant stand, side table, magazine rack, or book holder, and even as an umbrella stand, while its impressive dimensions of approximately 185 × 65 × 65 cm give it a strong sculptural presence. Whether placed in a living space, studio, or gallery, the Close Encounter stands out as a perfect blend of art, design, and functionality, bringing light and character to the room even when turned off. The lamp requires an E27/26 bulb and currently has an EU plug. [Condition] Good. The piece is in very good condition: the glass and white plastic are in excellent shape.
