Price History
Description
Designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930, the BL1 table lamp is a coveted design worldwide with strong references to Bauhaus. Winston Churchill, former Prime Minister of Great Britain, personally chose the Bestlite BL1 table lamp for his desk in the Whitehall and history records that Churchill even took the lamp with him on his countless trips around the world. This was the big breakthrough for the Bestlite, which has made it a design classic today. The minimalistic yet distinctive design makes it the perfect fit for any home office, workspace, creative corner or even as the lighting at your bedside table or in the living room. The Bestlite design stays close to its industrial roots and true to its original design. Bestlite is held in permanent collections at both the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Design Museum in London. Loved by architects, designers and design aficionados throughout its long history, today, Bestlite has become a contemporary classic. The table lamp has a toggle switch on the cable, to switch it on and off.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for its sleek, versatile design, making it a practical addition to both modern and contemporary interiors. Its height-adjustable feature is perfect for task lighting over a desk or reading nook, ensuring you can customise the illumination to suit your needs. It works well in minimalist schemes, Scandinavian-inspired spaces, or even eclectic rooms where a statement piece is welcome. When styling, consider pairing it with other monochrome or metal accents to create a cohesive look, and position it on a side table or desk to maximise its functional appeal without cluttering the space.
