Raphael Giarrusso Peirced French Ceramic Table Lamp Accolay, circa 1967

About the Item

Trained in Montreal at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Raphael Giarrusso was awarded a grant and settles in Paris in 1948. In 1953, he left painting and became an interior designer into the Accolay Group founded by André Boutaud with whom he worked for 10 years. However, at the end of his collaboration, he came back to painting and participate in the Salon of Modern Art in Paris in 1961. In 1963, he settled in Vermenton as a ceramist/sculptor. Since then, he regularly showed his works in the Porte de Versailles fair. Raphael Giarrusso is known for his stylized figures from medieval inspiration, always joyful and poetic. Mottled brown gray textured body of the lamp with colorful red and blue points of interest and areas of golden glaze accentuate the body of the lamp. The feature of his ceramic lighting has both the regular bulb under the shade and interior lighting so the pierced ceramic allows light to come through creating wonderful patterns of light. Both the upper standard socket as well as the interior candelabra socket has been replaced for USA use. It is on a three way switch allowing for just the bottom, just the top or both lights to be on. Overall size: 14"w x 14"d x 33.5"h. Base only: 8"w x 8"d x 22" to the bottom of the socket. Shade only: 14"w x 14"d x 11.25"h. Rewired for USA, E26 bulb. Lampshade included upon request.
