Industrial wall sconce by Jean-Louis Domecq for Jieldé

About the Item

The French lighting company Jieldé was the brainchild of the foreman of the Lyon industrial workshop Jean Louis Domecq (1920-1983). In the late 1940s Domecq was looking for sturdy, adjustable light sources to equip the workstations in his facility. Frustrated with the available options, he decided to design his own device with a multi-pivot articulating arm incorporated into a super-strong construction. In the early 1950s, Domecq launched the company Jieldé to produce table, floor and wall versions of his lamp system. This work lamp has impressed design experts around the world, including Sir Terence Conran, who wrote in his book Lamps & Lighting that "the ingenuity of the Jieldé lies in its electrical circuitry, which consists simply of metal discs embedded in hinges. This means that the lamp can be moved in any direction without breaking a wire." In other words, the Jieldé lamp is seen as "form follows function" at its best. Today different models of Jieldé lamps are known as Standard, Loft, Signal and Lak. The company also produces hanging lamps.
