About the Item

A striking and whimsical late mid-century sculpture, paperweight, and crowd-pleasing decor item, this piece was designed by Pierre Giraudon, an artist and designer known for suspending items in lucite in his designs. For this Pop Art iconic piece, a lightbulb filled with a phosphorescent (glow in the dark) substance is suspended in a lucite cube. By day, it's a charming conversation starter but at night is when it comes alive! In very good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use. Measures: 3" x 3" x 4.25".
