Desk Lamp by Charlotte Perriand for Jumo

The Jumo Model 600 desk lamp, designed by Charlotte Perriand, was produced by the French company Jumo, a well-known manufacturer of lighting fixtures and electrical accessories. Founded in 1927, Jumo specialized in producing high-quality lamps, particularly during the 1930s to 1950s. This company played a key role in promoting modern and industrial design through collaborations with designers like Charlotte Perriand, Pierre Jeanneret, and other prominent figures in architecture and interior design.
The production of this lamp by Jumo not only allowed for the integration of modern and innovative touches into both domestic and professional lighting, but also showcased materials like chrome and tubular steel, used for their durability, lightness, and minimalist aesthetics.
As a manufacturer, Jumo stood out for the quality of its products, combining functionality and industrial design, characteristics highly sought after by enthusiasts of period design. The Model 600 lamp thus becomes a perfect example of the fusion between Charlotte Perriand’s avant-garde design and Jumo’s technical production.
