Description from the seller

Table lamp sculptural "Brutalist" - In the style of Gino Robert – 1970s. Height 58 cm.

Vintage design table lamp in organic style, attributed to Gino Robert and probably made in Montreal (Canada) during the 1970s.
With a strong character, it combines a Brutalist aesthetic with the formal research typical of the 1970s.
Heat-formed acrylic diffuser with an irregular texture ("ice effect"), which guarantees a soft and evocative light diffusion.
Solid wood base, finished with gold resin inserts.
Electrical system revised and updated with recent components (cable, switch and plug).
In excellent vintage condition with the usual, slight signs of time and age. Noted a small imperfection at the bottom of the acrylic diffuser (highlighted in the photo), which does not affect functionality or aesthetics. Tested and working, E27 lamp holder, bulb not included. It is recommended to use an LED bulb to avoid potential overheating.
A rare piece with strong visual impact, ideal for collectors and lovers of interior design.
Please carefully view the photo gallery, which is an integral part of the description, in order to avoid any unpleasant misunderstandings.

Seller's Story

For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era. Every piece I select has something that captures my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual... or simply that detail that makes it unique. I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen. I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible. Selling on Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
