Contemporary Brass and Leather Floor Lamp with Pleated Shade, De-light f2

By Jonathan Amar

Located in Paris, FR

The De.Light F2 designed by Jonathan Amar is a sculptural floor lamp that merges French design sensibility with artisanal Moroccan craftsmanship. Built on a directional pear-shaped base in brass, the slender arm rises on a subtle diagonal, offering both balance and fluidity. Entirely handcrafted, the arm is adorned with a hand-braided leather detail at the top—an homage to the studio’s signature blend of tactile materials and precise construction. The shade, available in pleated fabric or hand-woven wicker, is elegantly mounted on a directional stem, allowing the light to be easily adjusted for ambiance or reading. Multidirectional and minimalist in silhouette, the De.Light F2 embodies movement and refinement. Each element—from the saddle-stitched leather to the precision-turned brass—is crafted between the studio’s ateliers in Paris, Rabat, and Leiria, culminating in a lamp that is both decorative and functional. Collection: Flow Materials: Solid brass, hand-braided leather, fabric or wicker shade Lighting: 1x60 W Max E14 (230V) – LED / 120V – LED Finishes available: – Brass: Polished, Antique Matt...
