Midcentury Tropical Island Table Lamp with Carved Translucent Panel
Midcentury Tropical Island Table Lamp with Carved Translucent Panel

Midcentury Tropical Island Table Lamp with Carved Translucent Panel

Located in Lisse, NL

Wonderful mid twentieth century table lamp with a carved tropical island scene. Over the decades we have sold a number of rare, great looking and meaningful tropical and exotic inspired light fixtures, but this sculptural table lamp is certainly one of the more unusual ones. The circular wooden body, the warm grain of the wood and the beautifully carved translucent decorative panel together create a striking and highly decorative midcentury design. The front panel shows a romantic tropical island scene with palm trees, a small boat and a sunset-like landscape. Even with the light switched off, the carved scene has a wonderful natural depth and character. However, when the lamp is switched on, the entire scene comes to life and the warm light shining through the translucent panel creates a beautiful and atmospheric effect. It makes this lamp both a practical light source and a decorative object with real presence. The combination of the rounded wooden frame, the stepped base and the illuminated tropical view gives this piece a charming midcentury holiday feel. It would look wonderful on a side table, console, desk, bedside table or in a relaxed interior where one unique and warm accent piece can make all the difference. This lamp is in very good condition with only minor wear consistent with age and use. The socket and wiring can of course be checked and professionally prepared for safe usage before shipping. If you like the uniqueness, the quality, the warm design and the wonderful atmosphere of this midcentury tropical table lamp...

"Spear Dancer", Spectacular, Rare Bronze with Male Nude by Brenda Putnam
"Spear Dancer", Spectacular, Rare Bronze with Male Nude by Brenda Putnam

"Spear Dancer", Spectacular, Rare Bronze with Male Nude by Brenda Putnam

By Brenda Putnam

Located in Philadelphia, PA

In an era when artists were capturing the exoticism and athleticism of modern dancers, such as Richmond Barthé's depiction of Féral Benga dancing with a large, curved sword or Paul Colin's drawings of Josephine Baker with her skirt of bananas, this sensuous presentation of a nude male dancer with a long spear stands out. The bronze was sculpted in 1926 by Brenda Putnam, who is best known for a series of bronzes showing children at play, often placed in gardens and parks. However, Putnam was ambitious to do more, leaving academic sculpture behind as she collaborated with architect Paul Philippe Cret to create the Puck Fountain for the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., executed a number of portraits in bronze, exhibited at the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles, and created "The Crest" -- consisting of a a large male nude swimming...

Antique, New and Vintage Sculptures

Styling your home with vintage, new and antique sculptures means adding a touch that can meaningfully transform the space. By introducing a sculptural work as a decorative finish to any interior, you’re making a statement, whether you tend toward the dramatic or prefer to keep things casual with modest, understated art.

A single, one-of-a-kind three-dimensional figurative sculpture mounted on your dining room wall is a guaranteed conversation piece, while a trio of abstract works arranged on your living room bookshelves can add spontaneity to the collection of first-edition novels or artist monographs you’re displaying as well as draw attention to them. Figurative sculptures are representational works that portray a specific person, animal or object. And while decorating with busts, which are sculpted or cast figurative works, hasn’t exactly topped the list of design trends every year, busts are back. According to designer Timothy Corrigan, “They give humanity in a way that a more abstract sculpture can’t give.” Abstract sculptures, on the other hand, are not meant to show something specific. Instead, they invoke a mood or scene without directly stating what they are portraying.

Busts made of stone or metal may not seem like a good fit for your existing decor. Fortunately, there are many ways for a seemingly incongruous piece to fit in with the rest of your room’s theme. You can embrace a dramatic piece by making it the focal point of the room, or you can choose to incorporate several elements made out of the same material to create harmony in your space. If an antique or more dramatic piece doesn’t feel like you, why not opt for works comprising plastic, fiberglass or other more modern materials?

When incorporating sculpture into the design of your home — be it the playful work of auction hero and multimedia visionary KAWS, contemporary fiber art from Connecticut dealer browngrotta arts or still-life sculpture on a budget — consider proper lighting, which can bring out the distinctive aspects of your piece that deserve attention. And make sure you know how the size and form of the sculpture will affect your space in whole. If you choose a sculpture with dramatic design elements, such as sharp angles or bright colors, for example, try to better integrate this new addition by echoing those elements in the rest of your room’s design.
