Description from the seller
L. Drimmer - Large Exclusive Table Lamp (65cm) - Ceramic with Craquelé Glaze - France - 1980s
Beautiful and imposing table lamp from the renowned French lighting house L. Drimmer. This specimen is an iconic example of the luxurious "Hollywood Regency" style that Drimmer made world-famous in the 1970s and 1980s.
The lamp is in excellent vintage condition and is a true "statement piece" due to its substantial height of no less than 65 cm (including the shade).
Features:
• Designer: Signed on the base with the authentic handwritten signature "L. Drimmer".
• Material: High-quality ceramic with a deep blue and emerald green dripped glaze and a stunning craquelé effect (see detail photos).
• Details: Finished with gilded/brass rings and a tiered foot that give the lamp a classic, almost monumental appearance.
• Shade: Includes the accompanying conical shade in a neutral tone with a fine gold trim, which spreads light warmly and atmospherically. The shade has a small dent on the back but is not visible during normal use.
Specifications:
• Origin: France.
• Period: circa 1980.
• Height: 65 cm with shade/43 cm without shade
• Lamp diameter: 27 cm
• Shade: diameter: 49 / height: 30 cm
• Condition: Very good. No chips or cracks in the ceramic. The glaze still has its full luster. The wiring has been checked and is functional.
A unique opportunity for lovers of high-end vintage design and collectors of French ceramics.
"The lamp and the lampshade are shipped with great care in separate packages. Shipping a shade is a delicate matter; should it unfortunately become damaged during transport, we offer a compensation of 10% of the auction price."
