In the 1910s, the ingenious inventor and designer Curt Fischer delved into improving the lighting quality in local factories. After chatting with workers, he found that overhead lights cast shadows on work surfaces. Thus, the first articulating lamp was born and patented. This versatile lamp can be mounted on walls or desktops. It even comes with an optional asymmetrical rotatable shade to shield your eyes from direct light. After enduring war and depression for nearly a century, Midgard was revived in 2014 by collector David Einsiedler and his partner Joke Rasch. Using the original factory's tools and machines and sticking to decades - old designs and materials, Midgard now supplies top - notch lighting for homes and corporate offices. Features of the Midgard Modular 556 Floor Lamp include: an articulating and positionable design for targeted illumination, a satisfying bakelite switch on the shade, an aluminum - spun shade, hand - assembled parts in Germany, a design from the 1930s by Curt Fischer, and availability in black and white.
