GUBI Bagdad Portable Rechargeable Light

First designed in 1954 by Mathieu Matégot, the GUBI Bagdad Portable Rechargeable Light is a striking example of mid-century ingenuity. Its sculptural, cubist form and perforated metal construction make it an eye-catching piece, full of personality and charm. Now reimagined as a portable lamp, this modern edition scales down the original design to half its size while adding the convenience of cordless versatility.

Fitted with a touch-activated dimmer offering three brightness levels, the Bagdad Portable Light adapts effortlessly to different moods and settings. Whether used indoors or outside, its bold silhouette and intricate perforations create a captivating interplay of light and shadow. Available in Black, White, and International Orange, it’s a distinctive statement piece that blends heritage design with contemporary functionality.

With its playful aesthetic and practical adaptability, the Bagdad Portable Light is more than just a lamp—it’s a piece of design history, reinterpreted for modern living.
