About the Item

Two Rare and exotic pairs of French Mid-century Modern gilt terracotta wall lights attributed to Jean-Charles Moreux. The pieces feature the image of a face and eyes masked by stylized fantasy acanthus leaves. They are reflective of the surrealist and neo-baroque movements in art and design during this period. The French decorator and retailer, Jean-Michel Frank sold exotic pieces in his shop integrating them with sober, pure, modernism. Priced by the pair. References: Surrealism, Neo-Baroque, Mid-Century Modern. Christain Berard, Jean Charles Moreux, Bolette Nathanson.
