Solbackens Svarveri type 1031 oak floor lamp, 70s

The AB Solbackens Svarveri Type 1031 is a classic 1970s Swedish floor lamp, recognizable by its minimalist Scandinavian design and adjustable arm.

Lamps from the Swedish brand AB Solbackens Svarveri are known for their Scandinavian modernism, primarily utilizing pine, although rarer oak versions exist, including this one. These vintage pieces from the 1960s and 70s are characterized by their functional, often articulated designs and the use of natural materials. The floor lamp features a wooden joint or "gooseneck" construction, allowing the light to be adjusted with precision.
