Kaiser idell model 6726 of the 1950s wall lamp or table lamp. The iconic german lamp by designer christian dell. Fully restored, fully original kaiser idell part. Lacquer paint superb, screws chrome superb. Total length deployed 140 cm. Short story // Its creator, christian dell, a goldsmith by training and one of the pillars of the bauhaus movement, was director of the metal workshop of the school then established in weimar. An essential animator of the movement, he drew and made with his hands robust, functional and timeless objects. Among the many models of lamps he created, it is the kaiser idell line, designed in the early 1930s, that will remain in the history of design. Originally, this series was intended for offices and workshops. Its name is composed of kaiser, like gebrüder kaiser & co., the company that makes it, and idell, the contraction of idea and dell, the surname of its designer. The production of this lamp lasted forty years, until the bankruptcy of the factory. For the past two years, the danish publisher fritz hansen has embarked on its reissue of replicas. But nothing better than the original than the copy.
