Table Lamp Model 40-013 ‘Lady’ by Lisa Johansson-Pape, Stockmann-Orno, Finland

A sculptural Nordic table lamp defined by its slender proportions and refined material contrast. The conical glass base shifts from clear to deep blue, creating a layered, almost floating effect within the form. Above, a polished brass cylinder supports a delicate wire frame shade holder, giving the structure a light, architectural expression. The composition is vertical and precise, balancing decorative glass with restrained metal detailing.

Model 40-013, known as ‘Lady’, was designed by Lisa Johansson-Pape and produced by Stockmann-Orno. Johansson-Pape (1907–1989) was a central figure in Finnish lighting design, known for her glare-free solutions and carefully considered proportions. Her collaboration with Orno helped define the language of Finnish mid-century modernism. This model reflects that heritage, combining technical clarity with expressive yet controlled use of glass.

The lamp works well as a statement piece on a side table, console or pedestal where its full height can be appreciated. Whether paired with a simple shade or used with a visible bulb, it brings a graphic, modernist presence to a space. A collectible example of Finnish lighting from the 1960s, where form and function meet with quiet confidence.
