Lucite and Chrome Eyeball Desk Robert Sonneman Lamp

This Lucite and Chrome Eyeball Desk Robert Sonneman Lamp captures the clean lines and Space Age style that made 1970s lighting so popular. With its sweeping curved lucite frame and polished chrome eyeball shade, it offers both sculptural appeal and functional task lighting.

The chrome eyeball head swivels smoothly, allowing you to direct light exactly where it is needed. In addition, the lamp features a twist switch neatly built into the top of the shade, making it easy to turn on and off while preserving its streamlined design.

The clear lucite body curves gracefully towards the base, while small lucite feet provide stability and add another distinctive design detail. Together, these features create a lamp that looks as impressive switched off as it does illuminated.

Condition

The lamp is in good vintage condition with age-related wear consistent with use.

One of the lucite arms previously sustained damage where it joins the chrome eyeball. The shade has been carefully secured by creating a discreet new fixing point. The repair is strong and does not detract from the overall appearance of the lamp. The additional hole is not immediately noticeable unless you know where to look. Please refer to the photographs, which form part of the description.
