About the Item

Standing as evidence of the inventiveness and timeless glamour of Art Deco is this stunning wall light by Jean Gauthier. This piece was designed to provide sleek and dynamic elegance that symbolised the era’s rich cultural scene across Europe. Even today, it exudes the same impression to the contemporary eye. The frosted glass shade is what sets this piece apart, as it is adorned with a geometric pattern, a hallmark of Art Deco aesthetics. The symmetrical shape, combined with brass and the milky white colour of the glass, highlights the era's drive towards glamorous aesthetics. This charming shade not only brings visual value, but also serves a functional purpose by diffusing light in a soft and enchanting manner, beautifully tying in the design. This piece subtly commands attention, adding a layer of elegance and sophistication to wherever it is placed. This lamp can be used to create ambiance, illuminate key parts of a room, or complement a space’s design aesthetic. With its timeless materials and subtle detailing, this piece is an enduring example of early 20th century French design, evoking a sense of classic beauty that still resonates today. The Art Deco ethos emphasized the uniqueness and originality of well crafted objects and featured stylized, organic forms. This ethos is emblematic of Gauthier’s models, including this wall lamp.

Brass and Opal Wall Light by Atelier Jean Perzel, France Early 20th century
By Atelier Jean Perzel
Located in Utrecht, NL
From 1920 to 1939, Art Deco revolutionized 20th century architecture and design. The period also gave birth to the Jean Perzel company, which would also make its mark on the world of lighting and design. Jean Perzel’s light fixtures and furniture in both glass and bronze later adorned the world’s most prestigious addresses… from the King’s Court in Belgium to the home of Henry Ford as well as the Rothschild’s family residence. He also conceived the lighting for the League of Nations in Geneva, the Luxembourg Cathedral, the Embassy of Canada at Lahaye, and even the French cruise ship Normandie. Like all wall lights from the Atelier, this wall light was designed and handcrafted in their workshop located in the heart of Paris. Since each model highlighted the architecture of the place that inspired its creation, the pure lines of Jean Perzel’s fixtures...
