Exemplifying the avant-garde sensibilities of french Art Déco in the early 20th century, this polished nickel floor lamp by La Maison Desny marries form and function. Its elongated chrome body culminates in a hollow half-sphere housing two bulbs, dispersing light while accentuating the avant-garde design. The cylindrical shaft stands on a round base. Simple yet striking.
It was created by progressive french design house La Maison Desny, who partnered with prominent architects to produce cutting-edge furnishings. The company operated between 1927 and 1933 in Paris, seeking to capture the spirit of the times through purity of form and to push boundaries. This elegant lamp stands testament to their visionary Art Déco style, which continues to feel modern nearly a century later.
The piece operates with electricity but comes without the cord.
The lamp body exhibits some marks from the passage of time and use, as can be seen in the photographs. less
