The classic Bestlite BL2 table lamp in Brass/Brass was designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930. Best is a British designer known for having been influenced by the Bauhaus school. Its clean lines and elegant expression offer a unique simplicity with strong references to the period. With its flexible arm and adjustable shade, the table lamp is ideal for use in offices, creative corners, on your nightstand or in your living room.
The Architects Journal named Bestlite the first Bauhaus product in the United Kingdom. This made design enthusiasts across the country notice the lamp and public demand kicked off when Winston Churchill personally selected the Bestlite BL1 table lamp for his desk. This helped ensure the iconic status of the Bestlite brand.
The Bestlite design is closely linked to its industrial roots and stays true to its original design. The lamps are on view in permanent exhibitions at the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Design Museum in London.
The Bestlite lamp has been used by many architects, designers and design enthusiasts through the years. It truly deserves its acclaim as a modern classic.
