This early 20th century french ceramic lamp by Argilor epitomizes the whimsical Art Déco style. Molded and hand-painted, it depicts a surprised couple - a top-hatted, cloaked gentleman grasping a birdcage, and a long-gowned lady he holds by the shoulder. Intricate details like the man's mask and the woman's hat reveal the artistry involved. A circular wooden base provides a refined counterpoint to the figurative scene above. On the back, the maker's stamp and a seal confirm its origin. The piece is equipped with a cable that can be plugged into an electrical outlet for power supply.
Art Déco emerged in France prior to World War I, drawing inspiration from avant-garde movements while maintaining decorative flair. This lamp encapsulates the sophistication and playfulness quintessential to French Art Déco design during its interwar peak.
