The Swan table lamp by Tunto combines modern LED technology and innovative materials with a minimalist form that draws from the legacy of Finnish design. Conceived by Mikko Kärkkäinen in 2015, Swan is inspired not only by nature but also by the work of old masters: Kärkkäinen has named Tapio Wirkkala as one of his biggest sources of inspiration.
When designing Swan, Kärkkäinen wanted to mould an appealing object with certain plasticity and sculptural character – to create a contrast between the material and the form. Crafted in Finland, Swan's frame is made of bent oak plywood with a round base in Corian, a durable composite material. As a final touch, the luminaire is fitted with a discreet touch-sensitive switch on the base, allowing you to easily adjust the lighting to suit your mood or the task at hand.
