Description from the seller

This extraordinary desk lamp embodies Art Déco, uniting sculptural elegance with functional design. The seashell-shaped shade gives the fixture a sculptural, almost architectural presence, typical of high-quality designs from the 1930s to the 1940s.

The flexible gooseneck enables variable orientation of the light – ideal as a desk, studio, or accent lamp. The heavy brass base ensures a secure stand and underscores the high-quality, timeless character. The combination of brass and ceramic gives the lamp a warm, elegant presence.
