Les luminaires de Marcel Guillemard et ses fils, Arrows, Mid-Century Floor Lamp

About the Item

Marcel Guillemard (1881-1932) was a renowned artist and decorator, known for being the first designer and artistic director of Primavera. Resolutely modernist, he was notably the one who recruited Louis Sognot at Primavera, but his premature passing in 1932 ultimately limited his involvement in the French Union of Modern Artists (UAM), whose ranks included such luminaries as Jean Prouvé, Sonia Delaunay, and Eileen Gray. The company Les luminaires de Marcel Guillemard et ses fils was founded by his children, using their illustrious father's name, and reissued Marcel Guillemard's lamps while also creating new ones. It was active in the 1950s and located at 92 Rue Amelot in the Marais district of Paris. This floor lamp is composed of three intersecting arrows, their feathered ends meeting the wooden base and their points upturned toward the light. Bibliography: La Maison Française, #93, December 1955-January 1956. Same model featured in an advertisement for Les luminaires de Marcel Guillemard et ses fils page XL.
