Description

Koch + Lowy Brass Adjustable Desk or Piano Lamp — Mid-Century Modern, Maker Marked

Elegant mid-century modern brass desk or piano lamp by Koch + Lowy, the acclaimed New York lighting manufacturer founded in 1946 by Ernest Lowy. Known for their refined modernist aesthetic and collaborations with designers such as George Nelson and Karl Springer, Koch + Lowy produced high-quality lighting pieces prized by collectors today.

This example features a pivoting cylindrical shade, angled tubular arm, and open square base, crafted in solid polished brass. The adjustable head allows for directional illumination, operated via an inline switch. Marked “KOCH + LOWY” near the joint, the lamp accepts T10/E26 bulbs and has been fully tested and confirmed functional. A timeless and sculptural lighting accent ideal for a piano, desk, or modern workspace.

Condition:

Good condition overall. Fully functional and tested. Displays light scratches, scuffing, and honest wear consistent with age and use. Brass retains a bright tone with mild surface patina, underscoring its authentic mid-century character.

Dimensions:
Approx. 15" H x 15" W (shade) x 8" D (base)
