Carronade Table/Wall Lamp

The CARRONADE series originated from this small distinctive cannon shaped table/wall lamp, that rests on a smooth wooden base, aided by small brass discs on either side. When used as a wall or table lamp, the dual-purpose solid wood base enables the user to rotate the spotlight position in numerous directions. Carronade lamp comes in a black or sand painted aluminium finish with brass or aluminium metal discs and American walnut or oak details. All models are fitted with LED light bulbs. It is not difficult to see how designer Markus Johansson drew inspiration from 17th-century ship cannons as he created the CARRONADE lamp series. The idea of a small table lamp, with a distinctive but playful shape of a small cannon, was quite a challenge. Realizing gunpowder and cannonballs references, by way of modern lighting technology then synchronized with 21st-century contemporary Nordic lighting designs, was no simple task but very much a ‘Eureka’ moment.
