DESCRIPTION DU PRODUIT

This floor lamp features a fine, tapered shaft in black lacquered metal, resting on a tripod base with slender, slightly flared legs — a graphic silhouette of great lightness. A brass ring underscores the junction of the shaft and the base. The black drum shade with a gilt interior diffuses a warm, subdued light.

This purity in black metal enhanced with brass is characteristic of French lighting of the 1950s, in the spirit of the productions of Maison Lunel or Robert Mathieu, where the taut line of the tripod embodies the modernist elegance of the post-war years.

Condition report: Good general condition. Even black lacquer, brass with a soft patina; shade remade to measure. Electricity checked by an electrician. A discreet and chic floor lamp, perfect in a corner of a sitting room or beside a reading armchair.
