Floor Lamp ST84 by Johan Niegeman for Artiforte, 1957 – First Edition, White-Grey, Modernist Design
€ 2.800
incl. BTW (indien van toepassing) volgens de margeregelingArtiforte floor lamp Niegeman, model ST84, was designed in 1957 by Johan Niegeman (1902–1977) for the Rotterdam-based brand Artiforte. This first edition from the 1950s is finished in white and light grey powder-coated metal with a black metal base and is regarded as a prime example of modernist lighting design. Each piece was handcrafted and, at the time, this was one of Artiforte’s most expensive lamps, produced in very small numbers. The design was highly innovative and received awards at the Triennale in Milan (1957) and the World Expo in Brussels (1958). The perspex diffuser emits a warm and even light. Depending on how it’s positioned, it provides either indirect light against the wall or direct light through the diffuser. Dimensions: h × w × d = 162 × 11 × 25 cm. Materials: metal, perspex. Colors: white, light grey (powder-coated), black (base). Source: Goed Wonen magazine, June 1957, p. XXIV, and Artiforte catalogue.
The lamp is in very good original condition, with only minor signs of use on the base, appropriate for its age. The original fluorescent tube has been replaced with an energy-efficient Philips LED tube (T8 CorePro 15.5 W/830) in a warm tone. The original TL tube is included if desired. The wiring has been checked. This rare piece is part of the collection of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen and is considered a true collector’s item.
