Vintage Floor Lamp by Mart Van Schijndel for Martech, 1989

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Sculptural floor lamp, model Slack I, designed by the Dutch architect and designer Mart van Schijndel in 1979.
The Slack I was produced in his own workshop Martech in limited edition and handmade.
This particular lamp is acquired from a former worker at Martech and was made in 1989 (production paper still there).
This impressive lamp is made of off-white lacquered sheel metal and it uses a HQI gass discharge lamp (kind of halogene) at the top. This uplighter gives a very soft diffused light. Thanks to the open structure of the light, the spot also throws some subtle light downwards, to accentuate the magnificant shapes of the sculptural body. The starter of the lamp is at the bottom inside.
When turning on the lamp it takes some time (a few minutes) to get to its capacity.
The lamp is in very good original condition. Just little lacquer damage around the edges, as visible in the last picture. A new Osram HQI-TS lamp in warm white is included.
