Le Klint Mushroom 204 Wall Lamp

In 1957, Vilhelm Wohlert was commissioned to design a wall light to decorate Nobel Prize winner Niels Bohr’s residence in Copenhagen. Wohlert created the 204, which was nicknamed the Mushroom due to its organic-looking form reminiscent of a mushroom. In 2019, Le Klint relaunched the Mushroom wall light, which features a wooden base of untreated oak and their signature pleated shade.

The 204’s pleated shade is hand-folded at Le Klint's factory in Odense, a technique that takes years to master. The shade is made from plastic foil, which is durable, easy to clean, and fire-retardant. Light is diffused into a soft, glare-free glow that surrounds the shade and bathes the wall in light. The 204 wall light can be installed individually or in pairs, framing a doorway or bed to create a sense of balance. Attached is a cable and plug, a nod to classic Scandinavian design. Please ensure the light is installed near a plug socket.
