Night Owl Table Lamp
Night Owl™ Table Lamp
The Night Owl™ Table Lamp, designed by Nicholai Wiig Hansen for Fritz Hansen, was created to bring a warm and cosy wash of Nordic light into the home. With its effortless, informal design, the lamp consists of a conical base and oval shade that merge seamlessly into a single, balanced form. Its organic silhouette gives it a friendly, almost human personality, making it more than just a lamp – it’s a character in the room.
