Birdy Swing table lamp: Design classic from 1952 in a new edition The creative mind behind the Birdy Swing lamp series, which includes this table lamp, was the Norwegian industrial designer Birger Dahl (1916-1998), who gave it its geometric look with soft contours and clear design language. Birger Dahl had a decisive influence on the Nordic style and Birdy Swing quickly became a design icon. In 2021, Birdy Swing is being relaunched thanks to the collaboration between Birger Dahl's family and the Northern company and presents itself as a pleasant additional light source with a timeless design that matches many furnishing styles and can be used in a variety of ways throughout the home - On/off switch built into the head of the luminaire
