Markslöjd is a Swedish lighting brand founded in 1963 in Skene, in the area of Sweden known as the Textile Kingdom. The company began in handicraft – "slöjd" in Swedish – and in its early years mainly made turned wooden lamp bases and fabric shades, with almost all production in the municipality of Mark. Its head office and central warehouse are still in Sweden, although, as the maker itself says, most production now takes place in Asia. Markslöjd designs lighting for homes, public spaces and outdoor use, aiming to combine function with timeless design.
Markslöjd lamps carry the Scandinavian mix of simplicity and cosiness. They are made in metal, glass, wood, fabric and rattan, in black, white, brass, beige and greige, and some lamps with amber glass. The range follows Swedish home traditions, where a lamp in every window and seasonal lights at Christmas are part of the year. That is why the range includes window lamps, Advent candlesticks and paper stars to hang in the window in winter.
At Lunares you will find Markslöjd pendant lights, table lamps, flush ceiling lights and wall lights, including bedside wall lamps. There are also floor lamps, chandeliers, desk and clip-on lamps, downlights, lampshades and light bulbs. Two further groups stand apart. Decor covers Christmas stars and candlesticks. Outdoor lights include outdoor wall lights, bollards, solar lights and a low-voltage garden lighting system with its own transformer.
