Best Pamono White Supertube Lamp by Anders Pehrson for Atelje Lyktan, 1970s

This exceptional Supertube pendant lamp by Anders Pehrson for the renowned Swedish company Ateljé Lyktan represents a masterpiece of Scandinavian Mid-Century Modern design from the mid to late 1970s, as can be clearly dated by the original factory labels “ateljé Lyktan ab – Åhus – Sweden,” which are characteristic of the production period from 1974 to 1978 and thus document the continuous development of the legendary Supertube series, which was originally developed by Anders Pehrson in 1967 and continuously refined throughout his tenure as director at Ateljé Lyktan from 1963 to 1978. This authentic vintage lamp embodies the unmistakable U-shaped tubular form of Space Age design with its characteristic white fluorescent tube in a minimalist aluminum construction, perfectly embodying Pehrson’s functionalist design philosophy, “Good light doesn’t always mean a lot of light, but many small light sources,” while blending the progressive fluorescent technology of the 1970s with timeless Scandinavian aesthetics. The high-quality Swedish craftsmanship is evident in the precise metalworking, robust construction, and original technical specifications, while the authentic manufacturer’s labels underscore the uncompromising provenance and collectible value of this rare designer icon, which is now valued as an investment-grade collector’s item in the international vintage design market. This functional task light is perfect for modern interiors that seek to combine authentic vintage charm with contemporary functionality. Its industrial aesthetic and distinctive Space Age design make it an ideal addition to mid-century modern interiors, contemporary workspaces, loft interiors, or as a statement piece in minimalist living spaces. Its historical significance as a pioneer of postmodern lighting design and its membership in the Pehrson design legacy underscore its lasting cultural and financial value as a cultural object of Scandinavian design history.
