„TECNOLUMEN crafts design classics and originals for people who recognise and appreciate the difference. Lamps, fittings, switches and design objects are created with artisanal precision, high-quality materials and a deep respect for the integrity of the design concept. As a family-run company, TECNOLUMEN represents a design culture rooted in the Bauhaus yet extending far beyond it: towards De Stijl, Art Deco and contemporary designs that share the same philosophy.“
The WG 24 is an iconic Bauhaus table lamp, originally designed in the 1920s and still produced today by Tecnolumen in faithful accordance with the original design. The lamp is defined by its clear, functional form language: a cylindrical glass shade paired with a minimal metal wall mount. True to Bauhaus principles, the design follows function and avoids decorative elements.
It is manufactured using high-quality materials and traditional craftsmanship. Each lamp is individually numbered and bears the TECNOLUMEN trademark, ensuring authenticity.
This table lamp, designed by Wilhelm Wagenfeld in 1924, is often named the Bauhaus lamp. Wagenfeld was 24 years old, when he was admitted as a journeyman to the Bauhaus workshop in Weimar. Here he designed the first model of this lamp as his solution to an assignment given to him by László Moholy-Nagy. As Wagenfeld said years later, the Bauhaus designs were intended to be industrial products, and indeed looked like them. In fact they were hand-crafted.
Wilhelm Wagenfeld (1900 – 1985) was a German industrial designer whose works are still admired today for their timeless aesthetics and functional clarity. As a key figure of the Bauhaus movement and a pioneer of modern industrial design, he left behind a vast body of work that has enriched the everyday lives of many people.
Clarity. Quality. Longevity. Made in Germany and created to last for generations – not as a fashionable statement, but as an expression of conviction, enduring value and timeless form. Explore one of the most iconic objects in design history and experience authentic Bauhaus craftsmanship firsthand.
The WG24 is now available both online and in-store.
