About the Item

A beautifully designed Frankart style lamp from the Art Deco period. The iconic Flapper Girl is beautifully represented here with her doe like eyes closed, her head turned over her bared shoulder and her close bob hairstyle representing the sexual freedom of the moment. The beautiful and sensuous woman is presented on a black finished wood base. The socket above her head on a separate support. But what is Frankart you ask? Good question. From the Art Deco Society I offer, "All too often when we think of decorative objects of the twenties and thirties we tend to visualize European items. Many of us are not aware that here, in New York City, small design studios and factories were busy making delightful American decorative items for our homes and enjoyment. The design studio of Frankart Incorporated, then at 225 Fifth Avenue, was one of these small firms, whose line of delightful female “nudie girl” lamps and ash receivers has become famous and very sought after... Von Frankenberg's smooth lines and his subtle hints at detail show his personal reaction to the European treatment of metal figures. By his elimination of their often overly elaborate costumes, and intricately worked heads and hairstyles, we are left with clean-cut, modernistic figures, perhaps inspired by Cubist painters or by the new purist philosophy of design. A quote from a Frankart catalogue of the period-states: “Particular emphasis has been stressed on artistic conceptions of streamline designs expressing the modern vogue. Inventive ingenuity has been happily combined with artistic ability to create objets d’art of practicability."
