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.
