Looking at the JWDA Lamp for Danish brand Menu, it takes a moment to discern the inspiration as gas lamps from pre-modern times. With the proportions simplified and subtly tweaked, the design blends the delicate and the raw with a milky opal glass shade set on a gutsy brass or steel base. Named for its designer, Stockholm-based Jonas Wagell, the lamp provides soft, cozy illumination from the supplied frosted bulb. Easily adjust the light level with a twist of the brass button to alter the ambience in any room, whether on a side table, tucked on a bookshelf or placed on a desk.
