Mid-Century Table Lamp with Turned Walnut Wood Hourglass Base

Editor's Note

This attributed Phillip Lloyd Powell piece is a masterclass in mid-century proportions. The narrowing walnut base creates a sense of lightness despite the solid material. Pair it with low-profile lounge furniture to emphasize its verticality, or place it on a sideboard to serve as a warm, organic focal point against neutral walls.
