Floor Lamp - French Maison Lunel - Designer: René Mathieu - Period: 20th Century
About the Item
A very elegant "reeds" floor lamp produced by the French company LUNEL.
The original gilded brass tripod base features three stems surmounted by three original opaline glassworks and 3 brass reeds.
The attractive effect of the stalks, which are offset in height, is ensured by the stability of a black marble-effect circular top.
This beautiful piece is undoubtedly the creation of René Mathieu, one of their talented designers who was a pioneer in the use of lacquered tubular metal or brass in lighting fixtures, linking it to the modern creative movement in which some of the great French designers such as Marcel Breuer were involved.
This luminaire, in perfect condition, is as elegant and refined a design as it was in the 1950s.
Period: 20th Century
Circa: 1950 - 1955
Dimensions : Height : 134cm - Diameter of the base : 18cm - Width : 48cm
Did you know?
Self-taught, Raymond Lunel made a name for himself by opening a modest electrical shop on rue Fontaine in Paris's 9th arrondissement, a place where he instilled and promoted his innovative vision of lighting and the art of living.
But it was in the 1950s, with the launch of his "Royal Luminaire" factory in Montreuil, that his reputation really took shape.
Its signature? Hand-crafted luminaires, made from the finest materials and, above all, in limited editions.
His inspiration comes from the world of aeronautics.
The materials used and the curves of the original design are similar to those of aircraft.
This resolutely industrial style attracted the attention of the leading designers of the day, such as Robert Mathieu, who collaborated with Lunel to create a collection of lighting fixtures. The range includes pendant lamps, table lamps and floor lamps.
