AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare French/Belgian Art Deco 'Pillar Lamp', circa 1930 – Wood, Brass & Martele Glass
This stunning table lamp is an authentic and stylish example of the European Art Deco and Streamline Moderne movement, dating from around 1930. The design combines a sleek, geometric aesthetic with high-quality materials and is in perfect condition.
The lamp is designed as a classic 'Pillar lamp,' featuring a long, slender rod that holds the shade up. This model is very characteristic of French and Belgian production from the 1920s and 1930s.
• Cap: The cap is made of heavy, textured glass, in a style often called 'Martele' (hammered) or 'Nuage' (cloud). This glassware is of high quality and provides a very soft, warm, and diffuse upward light, which is characteristic of the period.
Fixture: The fixture rests on a base of solid wood, combined with elegant brass/bronze details (the rings, the foot, and the decorative claw feet).
Signature: Under the base, a clear stamp with the initials 'FR' can be found. This is the mark of the metalworker or the workshop responsible for manufacturing the case.
Dimensions and Weight:
Total Height: 64 cm
• Base dimensions: 13.5 cm x 13.5 cm
Weight: 2.6 kg
