About the Item

A 20th century vintage table, desk or accent lamp designed by the iconic French designer Robert Mathieu in the 1950s. The lamp is adjustable at the shade which has been fully restored through brass polishing and re-lacquering of the shade. The brass shows a light dent consistent with age of the lamp and is in great condition nevertheless. A rare model. Wiring is professionally checked. E27 and E26 standards are interchangeable, meaning a European E27 base will fit in a US E26 socket. If you live in the US, a simple adapter will do. About Robert Mathieu Born in 1921, Robert Mathieu trained at the famous Ecole Boulle before working as a watchmaker. In 1949, he opened his first lighting store and subsequently expanded his business with the opening of three establishments in Paris. His eponymous production house edited the works of the greatest designers of his time, such as Michel Buffet and Jean-Boris Lacroix. Mobilizing his watchmaker’s expertise in his approach to design, his lights compete with ingenuity. He defines his pieces as ‘rational lighting’, focusing on functionality before form. Mathieu favors pure and soft lines that give the elegance and lightness of his creations. ---- We are an exhibition space and an online destination established by the passionate art director behind Jonathan Amar Studio. Our gallery presents a harmonious mix of iconic and engaging 20th-century pieces and bespoke contemporary lighting. With a strong focus on Italian mid-century designs, his success strives from sourcing designs with striking shapes, creative techniques, and interesting materials that cross the concept of time in the same way a Spirit does.  All our pieces are expertly restored at our atelier and we only offer items that will last another lifetime. Our 350 square meter workspace includes a luminous gallery, a restoration atelier where our expert artisans in metalwork, woodwork, upholstery, and electrics; restore each piece with the mission to honour a balance between restoration and preservation.
