Sigurd 'Carl Thore' Lindkvist worked for the lighting firm Luko, before joining Granhaga Metallindustri AB as Head of Sales and Lighting Design. He adopted the pseudonym 'Carl Thore' when he was presenting his lights to a client, not wanting to reveal to the customer his identity as a designer. The lights were labeled ‘Carl Thore Design’ from that point forward.

Wear consistent with age and use. Some age appropriate scuffs, dings, nicks, patina, and wear as largely shown and noted only for accuracy. Please note that only one lamp is photographed in the listing, but that the lamps are in similar condition and present well as a pair. Please contact us for additional images or video.
