Svenskt Tenn's floor lamps

A floor lamp can be placed anywhere in a room where light is needed. Floor lamps are flexible and portable and therefore also extra important points of light in an interior. In the 1939 “Interior Design Catechism” publication, Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson wrote: “The lamp of our time – our electrical time – is called the floor lamp; a portable, adjustable floor lamp.” In a comparison between the floor lamp and other types of lighting, she celebrated the floor lamp’s versatility and portability.
