About the Item

Beautifully sculpted with a low relief design featuring Leda and the Swan, and glazed in shades of flannel gray and white, this gorgeous, highly rare lamp was sculpted by Geza De Vegh for the famous Lenox porcelain works in Trenton, New Jersey. Each side of the lamp features a different scene of Leda, stylized in high style Art Deco manner. The lamp retains its original gray finial; the shade is a replacement. The lamp also retains its original cloth cord, so rewiring is recommended. (Dimensions include shade; lamp base itself is 12 inches high.).

"Exchange of Cultures, " High Style Art Deco Porcelain Lamp Base w/ Nudes by Robj
By ROBJ
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Illustrated in "Ceramiche Robj" and considered a major design by the renowned sculptor and ceramicist, this large piece was probably made in early 1930s to coincide with the debut of the Exposition Coloniale Internationale in Paris, which attracted almost 9 million visitors in less than a year. Rare and striking, this porcelain table lamp base depicts the globe surmounted by a tightly composed cluster of nude and semi-nude female figures representing cultures around the world. The women depicted here, all glazed in a gorgeous snow-white glaze highlighted in gold, are clearly representing a range of nations in Asia and Africa, probably coinciding with the nations that were part of the French Colonial Empire in the 1930s, before they won their freedom. Much like the one surviving building from the Exposition, now the Cité nationale de l'histoire de l'immigration, which features a massive bas relief mural...
