Because of the overall shape of the lamp it is often mentioned as a design by Louis Kalff, but this isn't the case. It was designed and built by VEB Narva Leuchtenbau, a company in the city of Lengefeld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lamp has a stylish Bauhaus appearance, but is from a later date than this famous design direction. It was made during the 1960's. It is in excellent condition, having retained its original dark grey color. This particular lamp has a lamp shade that can swivel a little bit. It has a regular E27 sized bulb socket, suited for 75W max or LED. The on\/off switch for the light is located in the base. It measures 35 centimeters tall (approx 14\"), with the lamp shade having a diameter of 33 centimeters (approx 13\").\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout VEB Leuchtenbau\u003c\/strong\u003e - knowledge borrowed from vintageinfo.be \u003cbr\u003eThis VEB Leuchtenbau company was founded in 1900 as Wittig und Schwabe Metalldruckwarenfabriken (Metal Printing Factories), Lengefeld.
