The PEANUT lamp was introduced in 1946 at a time when fluorescent lighting was gaining widespread popularity across society. But like many of his fellow contemporaries, Bent Karlby shared a strong distaste for this harsh and cold lighting. With its organic shapes and elegant brass detailing - completed with Karlby’s hallmark peepholes - the PEANUT lamp became his solution for soft and pleasant room lighting that was equally appealing to look at. The curvy-shaped shade is crafted from mouth-blown opalized glass, complemented by an elegant brass top and bottom piece.

Bent Karlby
Bent Karlby is widely regarded today as one of Denmark’s most productive and versatile lighting designers of the 20th century. He started his collaboration with LYFA in the 1940s, which was a partnership that would last nearly four decades. Bent Karlby is known for his soft light, organic shapes and hallmark peepholes. During his career, Karlby moved more towards pure geometric shapes such as the cone, cylinder and arc along with playful colours. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Bent Karlby never employed staff in his studio. He wanted things done his way and was known for his uncompromising work ethics. Among his most famous works are the PEANUT, China, Japan, MOSAIK, NINOTCHKA, Barcelona and PAN pendants, the ERGO table lamp as well as the Peacock, Quadrille, PAN and GOTHIC wall lamps.
