Description from the seller
Luminous Sculpture "Steampunk-Brutalist" with Vintage Manometer – A Unique Piece of Industrial Art
Exceptional desk lamp-sculpture, entirely handmade through a rigorous upcycling process (creative recycling). The work masterfully blends Brutalist aesthetics with Steampunk and Cyberpunk influences, creating an anthropomorphic art object with immense visual impact and dramatic character.
The historical centerpiece of the piece is the splendid original analog vintage manometer (dating back about 40-50 years) placed at the top of the structure. This vintage element, with its authentic patina and original graduated scale, serves as the true mechanical "brain" of the sculpture.
The body is entirely assembled with reclaimed hydraulic tubes, heavy-duty fittings, and iron bolts. Visible welds and the metal’s chromatic nuances (ranging from burnt gray to warm coppery/oxidized reflections) emphasize the primitive industrial nature of the piece. The solid structure rests on a base finished in meticulous detail, combining a robust iron shaped plate with a natural wood block.
• Unique Piece: Entirely handmade, impossible to replicate.
• Prized Element: Original historic industrial manometer (70s/80s).
• Technical Details: Single light point shielded by a black industrial lampholder directed downward, perfect for creating atmospheric, focused, theatrical light.
• Finish: Conservational protective treatment that blocks metal aging while preserving the wonderful patina of time, weld burn marks, and signs of lived-in history.
• Electrical System: Modern, safe, and fully functioning wiring, complete with an on/off switch and plug ready to use.
An avant-garde monumental artwork, soaring to 70 cm in height, ideal as a centerpiece for luxury lofts, high-profile professional studios, or private collections of elite industrial design.
Dimensions of the piece:
• Height: 70 cm
• Width: 25 cm
• Depth: 13 cm
