Originally designed in 1954, Gubi’s Bagdad lamp is a brilliant and unconventional demonstration of Mathieu Matégot’s affinity for perforated metal. Its faceted, almost cubist structure culminates in a comet-shaped tail that defines its sculptural character: a playful, original luminous gesture that remains surprisingly contemporary despite its historical roots.
The new edition halves its size and introduces unprecedented versatility, making it portable. Equipped with a touch dimmer offering three brightness levels and available in three colours — black, white and international orange — Bagdad becomes a unique addition to Gubi’s Matégot portfolio and to the ever-expanding collection of rechargeable lamps with no positioning constraints.
Sculptural and captivating, the Gubi Bagdad portable lamp decorates and illuminates the space with a delicate light that filters through its small holes, creating a vibrant and intimate atmosphere. Outdoors or in the living room, it accompanies moments of gathering and relaxation with a luminous presence that lends personality and a touch of contemporary poetry.
