AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare pair of articulated desk lamps

Beautiful and authentic pair of articulating desk or workshop lamps, probably dating from the mid-20th century, around 1990-2000

These two luminaires present a typical industrial aesthetic of 20th-century design, with a robust, fully articulated construction. Their combination of patinated metal and brass with silvery reflections gives them a strong decorative presence and a pronounced vintage character.

Each lamp features a dual-articulated arm system, allowing easy orientation of the reflector according to needs. The different joints are tightened with metal butterfly knobs, enabling adjustment and secure hold of the chosen position.

The two lamps display a different but harmonious patina, with silvery, gold, and metallic nuances resulting from the natural aging of their surfaces.

Technical specifications

Condition and restoration

Very good vintage overall condition, with a beautiful patina corresponding to the age and use of the pieces.

The metal structures are sound, with no perforation or major deformation. The joints operate correctly and the knobs allow the lamps to be firmly held in the chosen position.

The electrical parts have been restored, with rewiring to allow daily use. The lamps are equipped with twisted fabric cords in golden/bistre tones, harmonizing with their vintage aesthetic.

The two lamps have been tested and are functional, ready to be used.

The lot includes the two complete lamps as well as two bulbs.

The photographs are an integral part of the description and allow precise appreciation of the patina, condition, and details of each lamp.
