eBay watch: 1960s Scandinavian teak ceiling lamp
The information is a little vague, but there's no denying that this 1960s Scandinavian teak ceiling lamp is an eye-catching design.
It was made by AB Elysett / Markaryd in Sweden, perhaps designed by Hans Agne Jacobsson, but not for certain. Either way, it's certainly made of teak, with that twisted wood design that would fit perfectly in a midcentury-inspired home.
It's in working order, with a small defect that's pictured on the site. But at the current price of £1, that shouldn't be much of an issue.
